Chanel Couture, knife-pleated inverted sleeve detail. Is it possible that these are (attached to the) gloves??
Gareth Pugh, via nymag.com. These angular sleeves remind CC of the Rubik's Snake (anyone remember that?)
How to get the look:
If you can't commit to a whole jacket or top, buy just the sleeves!

Those sleeves remind me of Napoleon Dynamite. And the blue-skinned lady reminds me of a necromancer.
Lovely! I tend to gravitate towards sleeveless dresses, but this may have changed my mind!

I adore that look! And I really like those slip-on sleeves- thanks for sharing that with us!
Love it! So chic! I LOVE that Phillip Lim top.
I think this is a vry intriguing look. Don't know if it looks good on me, but I like the details.

PS - I'm asking for some insights about fall and what could be find at sales thar could be wore, maybe you could help me? If so, I'll be grateful.
I'm excited about this fall trend. I can't wait to try to recreate some of these fall runway looks
All of the fall windows have amazing detail pieces out already. I'm so excited, I'm such a huge sucker for amazing little details. Not a sucker for the huge prices that come with it though :( lol
OH, how I love these designs! I like the delicate detail, especially around the sleeves. Which I guess was hinted in the title of this post. But I really love the ruby red tinted twisted-sleeve woll twill dress! I like how it fits the models figure and clutches at the hip, giving her a bit of a more hour glass waistline, making a womanly shape.
gorgeous sleeves indeed!
Excellent post! You have such a great eye for detail.
thanks dear for the support!! && I am gonna be interning at a showroom sooo I am a lil excited..lol
Hmmmm... those are some crazy sleeves! I'm all about the slimming sleeve!
BTW... I think a pool painting is perfect for Sunday... if you're in the neighborhood pop over!
Have a great weekend!
