COOPER&BURNETT Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Do you have a three button ANDREW FEZZA blazer that you got from MARSHALL's, but wish you had the two button version?I've invented a trick that I will teach you. This is a three button version, baby blue ANDREW FEZZA BLAZER.Yes it is, and your FEZZA linen blazer can look like this too!Here's the trick.All you need to do is iron the lapels further down (like a two button version normally has) and make certain to cover the top button, and the button hole when ironing it making certain to hide it.Like so.When the lapels lay flat, they perfectly cover the button, and the button hole. TIP: Try not to iron over the button when doing so. Go arround it, otherwise it may show off the shape of the button behind it. Removing it is the best way to go.ALSO: Lay the blazer down, and line up exactly where you want it to hide the button. Practice it first. Then, spray the lapel with water to wet it down before ironing it. It will hold the shape better this way.You can remove the button carefully if you wish, as it will add to the effect.I removed mine after I took these shots.DON'T keep those 3 button FEZZA's in the closet any longer, LIBERATE THEM!. Do this trick, and wear them with pride like CROCKETT would! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Rich Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Great idea Coop. I am currently thinking about getting my white Fezza dyed to match that baby blue color that you are showing in these photos. I have not yet figured out how to do it, but I have a friend next door who has a seamstress business, and I am going to ask.Pocket flaps you have just tucked into the pocket, and not removed, correct?

Because it's not a raw material, I'd think it was already dyed white, and may not take well to another dyeing. It's the lining that I think would give you the most problems. Be prepared to sacrifice your blazer if it doesn't work.Yes, the pocket flaps were just tucked into the pocket.__________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Rich Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Yes, I do fear that will happen Coop.It's a shame that it hangs in my closet, never getting used. The white color just does not fit daily business use, as everyone wears such dark, conservative colors for business now. I'll try not to whine too much, as I love black and wear my black Linea Dome linen blazer all the time, and love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's all sorts of colors I want. Although, I do wear my colorful linen blazers to work, it's used more as a sportcoat, then as suit. I couldn't wear it with my suits, it wouldn't look right. They look better going casual as depicted on VICE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
