How to Get One You Will Love

Next, let’s get into how to find a puff sleeve dress you will adore. The fit, as always, is important when you have curves. I had to try a couple different styles to find one that fit me! For instance, the bust area was an issue as I needed some stretch. However, I finally found this dress that has smocking in the back. This dress had the stretch I needed and fit just right.

“When we started to see the puff-sleeve trend pop up in spring 2018, it seemed like just the season’s newest must-have. Since then, it’s been reimagined in so many iterations and has continually returned season after season; it’s become more than just a fleeting trend and a style with lasting power.”
