34 Puff Sleeve Dresses Trending Right Now

15th August 2024 | By Ashling McCloy

Both cute and dramatic, cool and glam, these fabulous dresses continue to dominate the fashion scene. With designers and high street brands alike embracing puff sleeve dresses, it’s no surprise we just can’t get enough of them.

Big sleeves are nothing new, but we are far from over them. We’ve completely fallen for the look celebrated by numerous designers, including Aje, Rotate and Ganni. They add an instant wow factor to any dress or blouse and will even balance out the figure, creating a fabulous silhouette. Double win for us. Throw on equally big sunnies and we’re good to go.

Puff sleeve dresses also give an air of playfulness meaning they work just as well with trainers, hi-tops or sandals as they do with sky high heels. They tick all the boxes for summer fashion: ageless, fun, glam and incredibly flattering. For the ultimate puff sleeve dress, make Australian fashion brand, Aje, your first stop. It considers the blouson design detail very much a part of its signature style. As does Los Angeles based label, Rhode, which features an eclectic and bold collection of vintage-inspired pieces.

As for the high street, it’s done us proud. & Other Stories has a covetable selection in expensive looking shades; Topshop, Zara and H&M have all served up contemporary designs at very friendly prices. Overall, you can’t go wrong with this style of dress. In fact, whatever the occasion from wedding to races, this will become your go-to statement number.
