The History of Lantern Sleeve Dresses
Many girls can not distinguish lantern sleeve dresses from puff sleeve dresses. Indeed, these two kinds of sleeves are similar to each other. And lantern sleeve are exactly evolved from puff sleeves. Actually, we have talked about the origin of puff sleeves in previous blogs.
Puff sleeves appeared more than six hundred years ago. Under the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, who closely pursued the fashion, the puff sleeves became popular quickly. And at that period, the puff sleeves even became the symbol of fortune and status. People believed that the puffer the sleeves are, the richer the person is. So people always would like to make their sleeves puffer. So in addition to wear corsets to make their waists look slimmer, they also began to stuff other materials into their sleeves to make their sleeves puffer in visual effect. This was exactly the prototype of the lantern sleeves.
In the 20th century, lantern sleeve tops and dresses became further popular. At that time, the aesthetic standard for women was to have a slender waist, while the large volume of lantern sleeves can make women's waist look more slender. In addition, the mechanized production of clothing has greatly improved the production efficiency of clothing and reduced the price, so lantern sleeve tops and dresses can be known and accepted by more ordinary people.
Nowadays, there is another difference between the puff sleeves and lantern sleeves. The puff sleeves are puffer at the shoulder and sleeve seams, while the lanterns sleeves are large in volume above the cuffs. So to a large extent, puff sleeves make people's shoulders look wider, while lantern sleeves make people's arms look thicker. Whether they are puff sleeves or lantern sleeves, they are now combined with more types of fabrics. We can see lantern sleeve dresses made of cotton, as well as mesh and chiffon, in the colors of red, blue or yellow. These undoubtedly provide more choices for women's clothing choosing and matching.

How to Accessorize A Lantern Sleeve Dress?
Since the shape of lantern sleeves are already eye-catching, overly colorful and flashy accessories are not that suitable for pairing with a lantern sleeve dress. Actually, the general principle of accessorizing a lantern sleeve dress is to be simple.
If your lantern sleeve dress does not come with a belt, then it is better for you to choose a belt with it. In the past, women even wore corsets to pursue a thinner waist, which caused irreversible damage to their bodies. As modern women, we do not need to pursue beauty in such an extreme way, but it is understandable that women in the past pursued a slimmer waist. As we mentioned before, lantern sleeves already make your waist look thinner. A belt makes your waistline clearer, which is enough.
Although we have emphasized that simpler accessories need to be simpler, jewelry is still necessary, especially for the occasions of grand occasions. According to the shape of the neck, you can choose a suitable necklace. In addition, you can also choose a pair of earrings which is not that bright or dazzling.
You can take a delicate clutch with you. Lantern sleeve dresses are quite picky about the bags they match because they are too elegant. Backpacks, messengers, and even tote bags that we often see in daily life are incompatible with this extreme elegance. Therefore, to a large extent, an exquisite handbag is the safest choice.
Although a solid color wool shawl will not detract from your elegance, and you can even wear a lantern sleeve dress in winter with a shawl, it is better not to choose a shawl as an accessory of your outfit unless you are too cold. The reason is that the most ingenious design of the lantern sleeves dresses lies exactly in the shape of the sleeves, while the shawl will completely block it.
A pair of high heels is seen as one of the best partners of a lantern sleeve dress. But if you think wearing high heels will make you too tired, then a pair of delicate flat leather shoes are also acceptable. But a pair of sneakers or slate shoes will definitely be out of the place.
