Re: Are big shoulders trending?

@NYCLatinaMe  Not my style, but here are a few puffy shoulder sleeves, and the ruffles sleeves I mentioned earlier.  All these photos were posted on the respective Instagram pages within that past week to 10 days:

I don’t mind a slight shoulder pad in a blazer, but I’m not a fan of huge shoulder pads. I don’t wear exaggerated designs and puffy sleeves in jackets, tops, and sweaters. A slight gather at the shoulder of a top or sweater would be ok.

Pros and cons of shoulder pads. Pro:  Give you GREAT posture.  You really straighten you posture wear it.  Cons: Ugly

Logo has been doing a lot of puffed sleeves.  So I am wondering if I have just missed this trend.  Social distancing and all...

I think that style would be great for women with slopping shoulders.

 

I have rather wide shoulders - it would a bit too much for me.

I can live with a slightly augmented shoulder as long as it's subtle. I do hope this doesn't mean the return of the eighties look, though.  Didn't like it then, still don't like it!

@NYCLatinaMe Big shoulders are only being shown by several of the fashion houses.

 

Some of the collections are showing them in an aggressive way, much like "Star Wars".
