First of all, you don’t choose a Hills & West blazer…it chooses you. Each one is unique and has a story to tell. When you try them on and find The One, everything just kind of clicks into place. It’s a little bit like Harry Potter’s sorting hat choosing its wizard. You just know. I’ve never really been much of a blazer or suit person. I’d always feel a bit awkward and frumpy in them. However there is something kind of special about the Hills & West collection. When you find the right one, you feel elevated. More confident, more polished and totally unique. But still feel like yourself, just a more amplified version of your best traits. As the founder of nashi, I literally get to wear my brand on my sleeve with my custom nashi blazer. It lets me feel polished and bold while still being approachable just like my brand. I’ve had people come up to me on the street saying they recognised me as “the nashi lady” from the funky blazer. I think that says everything. The best pieces don’t just complete an outfit, with Hills & West they become part of your story.
