I do like the look on others. I think ponchos are especially good on tall willowy women (not me) and I am rather clumsy anyway dolman sleeves just seem to get caught on things . I guess perhaps I have had ill fitting ones but give me a regular sleeve .

I was shopping at a B&M store yesterday and was surprised how many of these items were in stock.

I don't like dolman sleeves.

I like some ponchos. It just depends what it looks like.

I've always loved Dolman sleeves. So comfortable. I have a few older ones that I'm going to take out of bin storage and wear. I love the look of ponchos, but gave away many that I had when they were 'in style' way back. I don't think that I saved any .............. (thinking right now). I think they were 'a pain', driving and all. I believe the Marvelush are open in front, which would be much better, driving-wise.

I'm raising two hands!! Because I love, love dolman sleeves, capes, ponchos, wraps, ruanas. Yes, indeed, this is the year of the cape. They are everywhere and that makes me happy. But, I have always worn them. I suppose you could call be a collector. They are a signature look for me.

Dolmans bunch up under jackets, not good. Ponchos just look sloppy, the wearer's attempt to hide fat, bad.

I agree with you, especially the comment about trying to hide fat.

I like to see the Southwestern/Western/Native American type of fringed ponchos, even though I don't have any right at this moment.

LOVE dolman sleeves, ruanas, ponchos, capes, wraps......anything i can take off easily because i heat up easily! i dont wear a lot of actual coats anymore, even when the weather is in the teens. i love layering.

I am not too fond of ponchos on me....I am too short and they are not flattering.

I LOVE dolman sleeves, especially on a nice wool winter coat or jacket. I can wear a sweater or blazer jacket under it with no binding issues. My dolman sleeve winter coat is about 20 years old. If I can find a new one that fits me, I will replace it. I haven't been able to find one to fit for many years.
