The sleeve has been a "novelty vehicle" for quite sometime now... and the newness doesn't seem to stop. The freshest versions from the Pre-Fall and Fall 10 shows are truly exaggerated with focus on the waist for a still slim seeming silhouette. The white shirt is aching for this voluminous modern take on the 80's, while I think the black shirt is actually up & coming!
Bottom row are some examples of more commercial versions with just rushing on the shoulder - a nod to the trend without going overboard.
