All what Do you think about this blazer? It's more red than burgundy
First off, you could have started a new thread instead of resurrecting one that is over 5 years old.

However, it's a nice jacket (technically a sport coat and not a blazer). It looks like the shoulders are a petty good fit. Now just get it finished and enjoy.

Would you wear something like this to a casual business setting or on a date? I was thinking to match it with VT tie or an orange pocket square. But the red in the jacket appears to be lighter than maroon.
No. Too much pattern and I don't like matching colors. I'm not a fan of that tie. I'm certainly not a fan of that tie as paired with that jacket.

If you're going to wear a tie, I'd recommend a solid color, perhaps navy. Perhaps a knit weave to keep it casual. Or perhaps no tie at all. Some may say that's heresy but with a sport coat, I find it acceptable.

As for a pocket square. Again, keep it simple; white with a TV fold.

I love Isaia but they tend to employ big, bold patterns and colors. You don't want anything else you're wearing to have to compete with it. It's a fine line between stylish and clownish. Learn that line.

I will more than likely skip the tie. I'm thinking light blue shirt and beige/white pants would be a good combination.
Personally I like the color and pattern, as long as it doesn't look "clownish" I'd keep it. I'm a huge fan of Isaia too but I'm not sure how other people think about their "bold" patterns.
If doesn't look clownish by itself. And Isaia is a very well regarded and well made brand. As for the bold colors and patterns, that too is fine as long as you understand that and tone the rest of it down.
