Are puff sleeves still trendy? We’ve got the answers
If you left the house even once this summer, there is a 99.99% chance you saw someone rocking puff sleeves either as a top or even a dress. This trend took over the runways and the windows of our favourite stores this summer and it doesn’t look like it’s going away any time soon. Although this style looks bold, it’s super easy to wear and actually pays ode to the ’80s padded shoulders. Instead of the mattress-thick padding, this style features some ruching at the shoulder seam to create the extra volume. Sometimes, it even features a little bit of extra fabric for even more oomph.
Why love this style for the fall? Well, you’re going to be wearing more long sleeves and knit styles. So, instead of looking droopy and lazy, a little puff sleeve will give you the splash of style you need as the temperatures get colder. The perfect burgundys, olive greens and reds will look just amazing with the addition of a puff sleeve. You’ll be getting compliments left, right and centre. Trust us.
Pair it with a skirt!
Just because fall is coming, doesn’t mean you have to be wearing pants all day long. Find the perfect puff-sleeve shirt for you and pair it with a fun skirt! This look is perfect for a lunch date or even to work!
