Puff sleeve blouses have been around like forever. They have probably undergone variations like those raised puff sleeves in the nineties or the vintage gauzy puff sleeves back in the past. Nonetheless puff sleeve blouses remind us all of something girly and so this is a popular choice when we give a blouse pattern.
Puff sleeve blouses are a perfect bridal choice as they give that coy feminine appeal to it. Though there are multiple ways to get his done we are a little partial to the short sleeve with that delicate puff which has been pleated and folded and stitched into the sleeve so that it does not come out much as an enlarged or exaggerated puff sleeve. This can be done on a plain blouse or you can convert a border into the puff. This kind of puff sleeves works beautifully with heavy Kanjeevaram sarees, pretty half sarees.
If you want to try out one of those wispy puff sleeves where you add a transparent fabric to make the puff sleeve ten you take it totally vintage. Try this kind of a puff sleeve with a floral saree or an organza saree to bring out the complete look. You can also have a gauzy puff sleeve overlapping an existing sleeve that has embroidery done to bring out the work in a subtle way. If you are wondering if you can wear a puff sleeve blouse with only Kanjeevarams, well you are wrong. It looks as glam with a fancy saree too!!
If you are not a short sleeve fan and yet want to try out the puff a barely there puff with the sleeves ending with a border is a great choice. This works well even for brides who wish to wear the heavy border blouses or make the blouses heavy with work. Another fun thing when you wear puff sleeves is that you can flaunt a fancy arm band and it looks great too. Also we recommend you do not do an exaggerated puff if you are conscious about your arms.
From Devasena to Nayanthara everyone looks fabulous in puff sleeve blouses. Guess its time you own this style too!!
