Puff sleeves are very flattering, primarily for triangle figures. They add volume to the shoulder area, making the waist area look narrow. But puff sleeves can also be flattering for any body shape and size, depending on the placement of the puff. The puff sleeves can help accentuate the different places of your body. With the right location, the puff sleeves can either widen or narrow the shoulder area, slim the waist, or make the bust area look more or less full. Blouses and dresses with puffy sleeves can give a romantic and feminine touch. It almost reminds you of when most women wear these princess-style sleeves. Puff sleeves can hide the upper arm if you feel uncomfortable showing them off. If you put the puff sleeve at the top of the arm, it will create an illusion of making a person look taller. But putting the sleeves at the end of the sleeve will make someone look smaller. For a pear-shaped woman with fuller hips, puff sleeves can take attention from the waist to create the illusion of a tinier waist or an hourglass figure. If you want to draw attention to the bust area, you can place the puff sleeves at the top; otherwise, you can put the puff at the bottom. Puff sleeves should come with a V-neck or lower neckline for large bust sizes. It is best to avoid sewing puff sleeves at the top with a straight neckline. A blouse would look nicer with a straight or high neckline when the puff sleeves are located at the bottom. Choose tops or dresses with subtle puff sleeves if you have an inverted triangle body shape. Match them up with loose bottoms like flared trousers. If you have a slim neck, you can try all types of puff sleeves. But if not, wear open necklines, V-necks, and strapless versions. Avoid wearing high necklines.
