For the last 90 days, I've been wearing the DEAT 2022 Women's Notched Double-Breasted Blazer, Camisole, and Short High-Waist Skirt three-piece suit from Gracequeens. The name is a bit of a mouthful, but the real question is: does it live up to expectations? Here's my detailed, day-by-day experience.
I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical at first. My past experiences with online clothing haven't always been great—poor fit and questionable quality are common issues. I was really hoping this women's blazer with pockets would break that pattern.
The package arrived promptly. Inside, the suit was folded neatly. The color immediately caught my eye—it matched the online photos perfectly. The fabric felt surprisingly soft to the touch, with none of the cheap or scratchy texture I sometimes encounter.
Each piece—the blazer, camisole, and skirt—looked well-constructed. I inspected the seams and found them straight and sturdy. The buttons on the blazer felt secure, and best of all, the pockets were fully functional, not just decorative flaps you sometimes get.
My initial reaction was that it looked far more expensive than its price tag. I noticed the Official GraceQueens store carries a variety of other stylish pieces as well.
Verdict: An excellent first impression. My hopes were high!
I wore the blazer and skirt to the office. The camisole felt a bit too revealing for my workplace, so I'm saving it for evenings out. The fit was generally good and true to my usual size. The skirt was a touch shorter than I typically prefer, but that's more about personal style.
After a full day of wear, a few things became clear:
The wrinkling was the main drawback. Steaming didn't help much, so ironing is essential. It's worth factoring in this maintenance when considering the set.
Verdict: A good set, but requires ironing. Be mindful of the skirt's length.
