NYC Uniform Outfits: Black Blazer and Straight-Leg Denim

Black blazer, straight-leg denim, and something practical enough to outrun the subway — the NYC uniform is equal parts polish and pace.

Alongside the expected black blazer and straight-leg denim, this edit focuses on linen capri pants, straight trousers, Supima cotton pants, and sculptural suiting from Jacquemus, Helsa, Jenni Kayne, and Bottega Veneta.
