Ann Fulton on Instagram: "Easy Tip To Shorten Your Sleeves 👚Very few things make us look more frumpy and heavier than having your sleeves too long. Also, you want to avoid a straight line from where your sleeve ends and your hip/tummy area. Straight lines widen. Of course you can roll, but that usually looks a little messy. I found that if you turn back the cuff and button it “backwards” you end up with a version of a French cuff. So simple and when you push up your sleeves, you look thinner and more friendly.

Olivia Hayward ⚡️Slow Fashion on Instagram: "Puffy sleeves with a bow hack! No placket needed! This is my fave little workaround for adding a tie-up option to my puffy sleeves finished with bias binding. I love this option because it leaves the sleeve open and adjustable to the arm of the wearer. It’s on the inside of the sleeve but it means I don’t have to make a placket so 🤷‍♀️ Steps: I start with a rectangle of fabric. The wider the puffier. Different fabrics will puff more or less (this is a medium weight silk so it’s got some wind in its sails).

Olivia Hayward ⚡️Slow Fashion on Instagram: "The bigger the rectangle the puffier the sleeve! Lots of questions about a pattern for the big puffy sleeve. But I don’t use one. Because I use mainly thrifted and second hand fabrics I have to work with what I’ve got. So the sleeve allowance has to be in the budget. I budget in two rectangles. This one is the width of the fabric which is 55 inches. Then the depth is going to be 2x how far you want your sleeve to extend (do some folding and mocking up?) Fold in half short sides together. Cut a curve into the top of the sleeve. The short ends will be at the underneath of the sleeve. If they’re longer the sleeve will hang underneath more.
