Fashion Vocabulary: What's a Bracelet Sleeve?

Filed under: Fashion, Best of the Season, Runway Report

Maybe you've been listening to this season's fashion talk and wondering, what the heck is a bracelet sleeve? Isn't it the same thing as a 3/4 length sleeve? Well, technically, no. Bracelet sleeves are different than the 3/4 length sleeve because they hit just above the wrist rather than just below the elbow, which is a difference of a few inches. This look was named the "bracelet sleeve" because it's the perfect length to show off bracelets (how original). Need to see it to understand? Just look on the runways, especially at Louis Vitton, pictured. It's not just on the runways, either. This look has also been spotted recently on celebrities like Beyonce and Katie Holmes.
