My taste would be for this look in a slightly more tailored tropical wool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787650 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 20:35:19 +0000 Emily K 1787650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On second inspection, is this really Gentlewoman-appropriate? &nbsp;The ease is, I think. &nbsp;But the slouch? &nbsp;I'm looking carefully at the craftsmanship and the seams appear kind of puckery, and there's the funky hems on the sleeve and the bagginess at the bottom of the pocket. &nbsp;Fabric is linen and viscose--is it all a product of the fiber? &nbsp;If it is, does that make it OK?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787647 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 20:30:21 +0000 Emily K 1787647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's the perfect blazer for me! &nbsp;I ALWAYS push-up or roll sleeves or buy 3/4 length. &nbsp;Having fabric over and around my hands is anathema to me.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787614 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 19:19:57 +0000 Lisa 1787614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Neat idea. &nbsp;Easier than having to fuss all the time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787609 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 19:18:12 +0000 Anonymous 1787609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, Don J.&nbsp; Those jacket sleeves stayed up no matter what dangerous situation he was in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787570 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 18:03:10 +0000 lpr200 1787570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Don Johnson! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787568 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 17:44:14 +0000 Anonymous 1787568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It seems like a wonderful feat of sartorial engineering.&nbsp; I wonder if Don Johnson had one of these on Miami Vice?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787539 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 16:42:04 +0000 Ginger 1787539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hehehe... I'm reminded of the set of decorative elastic bands I saw on Etsy earlier this week, originally sold in the 1950s to help keep those sweater sleeves scrunched just so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787538 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 16:41:18 +0000 Jenn 1787538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If this jacket, and their slouchy trousers, came in my size, I'd be seriously contemplating a purchase. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787533 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 16:32:27 +0000 Anonymous 1787533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember having a Calvin Klein pencil skirt suit - back in the day - with a blazer featuring pre-scrunched sleeves. &nbsp;Ha. &nbsp;Memories... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787486 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 15:19:36 +0000 Diana 1787486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Someone should get one and try it out!&nbsp; I am another one who loves the look of scrunched blazer sleeves but have never been able to make them stay up.&nbsp; </p> <p>ETA: I've tried the elastic band thing (I used a hair tie) but found it super fussy - basically to keep the elastic hidden you have to either cuff the sleeve first (which doesn't work on all blazers) or artfully arrange the scrunch <i>just so,</i> which of course stays for like 5 seconds.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787464 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 14:53:53 +0000 Marilyn 1787464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting!&nbsp; I'm a scruncher of jacket sleeves during warmer months.&nbsp; </p> <p>I saw a blogger once who hid an elastic band within the bottom of the sleeve scrunch to keep it up.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/interesting-idea-jacket-with-sleeves-that-stay-scrunched#post-1787380 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 12:07:46 +0000 RobinF 1787380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! I can never get a jacket sleeve to stay up and don't always like taking it off (off/on/off/on).
