  Wonderful view to show the exaggeration of this style of sleeve which was, really, so popular in the 1980s!

• dannyscotland said:

  Is there a reason we cannot see her hands? Is this blouse structured to allow her to wear the fashion of the day when perhaps she does not have hands or arms? The sleeves seem almost to have a structure inside them holding them out.

• Ju Bo said:

  ....i think she exaggerates the sleeves by pointing her elbows outwards with her hands near her shoulders, all inside the sleeve. This may have been intended to be a silly picture?
  
  I know that back in the day there were also tulle undersleeves for the larger mutton sleeves. Maybe this blouse was originally intended to be worn with undersleeve 'stuffing'.

  "There's a very modern look about her" I think because she has good teeth and is showing them.
