Impt. question about this adorable anthro top...
Permalink Closed


curly turtleneck


I tried this on last weekend, and loved everything about it, EXCEPT the sleeves.  I felt like they fit me wrong.  Instead of being fitted around my arm and making a little puff sleeve, they were loose.  I even sized down to a XS.  I don't think I have freakishly skinny arms, so I am wondering if they are supposed to be loose.


For those of you who have it, how should they work?


I haven't been able to stop thinking about it, so I would consider getting it altered if necessary.


TIA!!

I have this shirt in blue.. and my sleeves are loose.. I think they should be this way. I don't think a $50 shirt would be worth being altered.. but that is only a personal opinion. If you love everything else about the top I would get it. It is really cute and I seriously doubt that it looks as weird as you say!

yeah, the arms are weird on me too, but the rest of it is so great that I choose to ignore it. I think it's becuase it's more of a cap style sleeve and there's not as much fabric on the bottom.

Yeah, I bought this shirt via a charge send, so I never got to try it on first. I ended up returning it because the arm holes were so large, you could see my bra straps from the sides. I thought about sizing down, but then I think the shirt would have been too tight in the torso area. As much as I wanted this shirt to work, I had to let it go.
