When taking in the fashion landscape over the past few years, it would be extremely difficult to miss the overwhelming popularity of oversize, boxy blazers. The cool style has been spotted everywhere from the runways to the wardrobes of the most stylish influencers, and worn in a variety of ways. However, as with any trend, the most fashion-forward people are already looking for the next It style to come along. In this case, it happens to be the nipped-waist blazer. This fresh style still has a longer hem, but the shape has taken a strong swing toward sculptural with an hourglass effect.

This structured, cinched design is actually nothing new. It's a fun revival of the jacket style that reigned supreme back in the '80s and early '90s. And it's no wonder why it's coming back into the spotlight—the silhouette is streamlined, figure-highlighting, and all-around super chic. Balenciaga is known for this signature look, but it's now being spotted across the fashion landscape. Ahead, I rounded up 23 great options for getting the look, plus a variety of outfit ideas featuring the fitted-blazer style.
