Take a look at some of today’s top fashion influencers who have been spotted wearing the milkmaid sleeve micro-trend below.
While animal prints, neon hues and strappy sandals continue to dominate the fashion scene, there’s a micro-trend that has been making its rounds this summer: milkmaid sleeves.
Defined by puffy, ruched sleeves and often complemented with boat or sweetheart necklines, the milkmaid sleeve quite literally earned its name from the humble milkmaid and her decidedly feminine ensemble as she milked cows in the meadows. Not all ‘fashion influencers’ come from metropolitan cities, after all.
Brands like Ganni and Self-Portrait have taken cue from her prairie-like style and incorporated the sleeves into their respective collections. Take a look at some of today’s top fashion influencers who have been spotted wearing the trend below.
The Song sisters (Aimee and Dani) are among the most recognisable faces of the trend lately, as their Instagram feeds show:
Brazilian blogger Camilia Coelho, who recently debuted her own fashion line, also sported milkmaid sleeves on the streets.
