How to Wear Oversized Sleeves: Style Panel Works The Season’s Biggest Trend
Oversized and statement have become synonymous. Big glasses, big bags, big shoulders and now, sleeves. When Vetements sent super long sleeves down the runway, we knew we were in for an shirting revolution. While length is one way to get the look, we’ve also seen styles that amp up the volume and statement factor with ballooning shapes and unexpected embellishment. The trick to this trend may lie in the functionality (how do you navigate a dinner table with all that extra fabric?) but Style Panel is up for the challenge.
Challenge #180: How to wear an oversized sleeve?
Check our our Style Panel’s tips on how to supersize your sleeves.
Liat Neuman, 39
Toronto | YomanChic
One of my favourite trends for Spring is exaggerated sleeves. The voluminous ruffles on my white shirt add some drama to an otherwise classic style. To keep the look light and casual I pair my shirt with floral embroidered jeans.

Step up your style game this spring with a statement sleeve. Add a bell sleeve to any look for a refresh. I’ve layered my oversized sleeve under a dress but to keep things more casual I would pair it with jeans.

The ruffled panels on the sleeves of my blouse give it a super exaggerated look. Paired with light jeans and booties this top does all the talking.

Krystin Tysire, 22
Vancouver | Girl in Betsey
I’ve styled my floral bell-sleeve blouse with jeans and pumps for a ’70s vibe. The print makes my shirt easy to pair and my soft pink accessories bring out the colour in the floral.

Sarmistha Goswami, 35
Ahmedabad, India | Style Over Coffee
My black Georgette top with exaggerated sleeves is a statement piece in itself. I’m wearing it with basic skinny jeans and some bright accessories. The billowy look is comfortable and stylish making it perfect for an evening out.

Victoria | Laura Jane Atelier
The exaggerated sleeve trend seems to be everywhere this spring. Since the sleeve is such a statement, I like to style it with something simple on the bottom like a pair of jeans or a pencil skirt.
Laura is wearing: Top, Chic Wish; Jeans, Levis 501c; Necklace, Vintage; Bag, Vintage.
