Oversized Sleeve Luxury With The “Dolman” Sleeve
September 19, 2009
One of my fashion weaknesses is an obsession over unique sleeves, especially when it comes from Asian design. I love the oversized, way too long, angled, over-the-top, just fabulous sleeve. Even when it is a single strap- if it has a nice line, I’m all over it!
And this is my lastest favorite, so unique and elegant in movement (not to mention, absolutely cozy as can be). It has that slightly sheer factor which adds a nice touch for showing off the true silhouette through the massive volume. This is a dress that demands the spotlight.
I seriously heart this dress…. love it! This top is from Beccgirl which can be found on yesstyle.com’s site. The style of this particular piece is called the “Dolman Sleeve Oversized Top”. There are lots of other options that feature the “dolman” sleeve as well, which is when the sleeve is long on the sides and back, but smooth and small at the front. The sleeve is an extention of the dress which makes for a voluminous shape.
The shape is haute and the options are many. Right now I am wearing them with some beige shorts which you cannot really see (I wanted the top/dress to stand out on its own) but it would also look very darling with some leggings or skinny jeans.
The “dolman” sleeve- it’s one to remember and seak out for a very unique and glamorous style.
I love it too! I wonder if they ship to Australia….
Yes, they do ship to Australia!
i love the dress, how much?
This particular dress I don’t think is available anymore, but the sleeve style still very much is. There are some similar dresses, maybe in the fourty or fifty dollar range?
Take a look, they have a good range of prices, from like twenty dollars and up. Love it.
