I like the sleeveless idea for this dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crazy-to-cut-off-the-sleeves#post-2252222 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 04:56:27 +0000 Zaeobi 2252222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about altering the sleeves into something else, then - like a slim elbow length sleeve, ruffled cap sleeve or even just a slit sleeve (literally just cut it open, lol)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crazy-to-cut-off-the-sleeves#post-2252214 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 04:00:40 +0000 Karie 2252214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Vildy said. And the cost of the alteration would be almost as much as the cost of the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crazy-to-cut-off-the-sleeves#post-2252204 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 01:48:10 +0000 Jaime 2252204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hope it works out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crazy-to-cut-off-the-sleeves#post-2252194 Thu, 17 Feb 2022 23:41:57 +0000 rachylou 2252194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dress!

Sounds a little more complex than I thought. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crazy-to-cut-off-the-sleeves#post-2252182 Thu, 17 Feb 2022 21:17:05 +0000 Vildy 2252182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, can not only choose between de-puff and sleeveless but a sleeved armhole is usually smaller than a sleeveless opening.&nbsp; So the seamstress would enlarge the armhole and possible use the excess fabric from the removed sleeves to create facing.&nbsp; This would probably cost more than just slimming the sleeves, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crazy-to-cut-off-the-sleeves#post-2252181 Thu, 17 Feb 2022 21:16:30 +0000 Lesley 2252181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Right? My favorite colors are everywhere this season, and I refuse to be defeated by Cottage Core! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crazy-to-cut-off-the-sleeves#post-2252180 Thu, 17 Feb 2022 21:12:45 +0000 nuancedream 2252180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's a fairly easy alteration for a seamstress to depuff puffed sleeves and create a slimmer silhouette. Love the color of the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/crazy-to-cut-off-the-sleeves#post-2252177 Thu, 17 Feb 2022 21:08:35 +0000 Lesley 2252177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these colors, and this dress! But man, I just don't do Prairie Core. Or Cottage Core? Anyway, no puff sleeves for this gal.</p> <p>Would a seamstress be able to take those sleeves off for me?</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=815916002&amp;cid=15292&amp;pcid=15292&amp;vid=1&amp;nav=meganav%3AWomen+%26+Women’s+Plus%3AShop+Women%27s+Categories%3ADresses+&amp;cpos=47&amp;cexp=2223&amp;kcid=CategoryIDs%3D15292&amp;ctype=Listing&amp;cpid=res22021713366192873272203&amp;modelSize=S#pdp-page-content">https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse.....d=1&#038;n</a> </p>
