I urgently need a work blazer/ jacket. I ordered one online and it was too big and they don't have smaller size.

I'm short, size 18, big belly.

I feel like blazers that have collars make my belly/ chest area too big and my neck isn't long enough. I've been looking for collarless but not seeing anything. I'll be wearing black trousers and flat shoes. Any style suggestions greatly appreciated with somewhere that delivers quickly. I was searching Next as I think they have the fastest delivery

John Lewis click and collect to Waitrose is fast and they have mutiple brands. Not sure on budget but a few ideas. I like a tweed style jacket with black trousers and flats.

Whistles
Hobbs
Mango

Thanks, they are lovely but very expensive! I'm thinking 40-50 as I don't see me wearing it again

Do you have a Sainsbury’s clothing near you, they have some nice bits at the moment. If you’re genuinely only going to wear once, how about something more casual you dress up for this event but can wear again? Could you get away with a quilted jacket for example?
