Blazer length comparison with photos

[Sortasartorial]

To your eye, which group of blazer lengths looks better on this body?

Longer group: 1ab, 3ab, 5ab.

Shorter group: 2ab and 4ab.

I'll have sleeves shortened and trouser break reduced. This is a visual follow-up question to my recent rules-based question regarding jacket lengths.

Longer group.

In the other conversation I suggested possibility of going shorter, but here I think the longer ones are better, especially as it's a formal blazer. The length of the double-breasted shorter blazer isn't too bad, but something about the proportions seems strange. I'll let people with experience with double-breasted blazers comment on that.

Agree that generally the longer length looks better on you.

However these jackets all seem to have a short front balance.

Longer group.

Thank you.

Thank you. I'll look into that. Three makers, so it may be I stood oddly.

longer group. 1 and 5 look best, the proportions of the pocket placement to the bottom of the jacket look best to my eyes.

Thank you.

Single-breasted - longer
Double-breasted - 1a with a length of 2a.

And I would also go for 1 size smaller. All of these jackets seem to be a bit too large.
