Ridiculously Puffy Sleeves Are The Spring Trend That Just Won't Quit

Instagram influencers can't get enough of this look, which showed up on the runways at Marc Jacobs and Rodarte.
|

First came ridiculously oversized sun hats . Then came extremely large tote bags . Now, the fashion world can’t seem to get enough of larger-than-life sleeves. (If we had to guess, we’d say Napoleon Dynamite would approve .)

We saw plenty of puffy-sleeved styles come down the runways during the spring 2019 season, notably at Rodarte, Mara Hoffman and Marc Jacobs , who took the trend to new levels. Puffy sleeves have also been all over the Instagram accounts of the biggest fashion influencers.

Oversized sleeves no doubt make a style statement, so if you’re a little hesitant about trying the trend, we’d suggest making them the star of your outfit; pair a puffy-sleeved top with a pair of simple jeans or a skirt, or to make things even easier, try a puffy-sleeved dress with classic white sneakers or a pair of minimal sandals. To anyone who might be worried about unintentionally looking like a football player, we say embrace it. But also remember that you can start small.
