Flaunt It: Toned Arms

Posted By Rosie Purdy On January 7, 2013 @ 12:00 pm In Bridal Market,Fashion & Beauty,Trend Alert | 1 Comment

Those yoga sessions and gym visits have given you the right to bare arms. Highlight your scene-stealing shoulders, biceps, and triceps by slipping into one of these numbers, featured in our winter issue [1].

1. Flaunt a fit top with the shoulder-blade-baring cut and high neck of Jenny Packham [3]’s silk “Marigold.” Soften with a tousled chignon and statement studs.

2. It scores major points for its plunging v-neckline, but this silk gown by Angel Sanchez earns extra credit for doubling as your “something blue” (#N104, gabriellanewyork.com [4]).

3. The key to cap sleeves? Feminine fabrics that cup (not clamp) athletic limbs. Consider this charming illusion lace topper on Nicole Miller [5]’s silk sheath.

4. Rosa Clara [6]’s “Bremen” is ideal for pear shapes: It displays trim arms and a slim upper body while the dramatic ball skirt downplays a fuller bottom.

5. The open, draped sleeves on Temperley London [7]’s crepe de chine “Scarlett” frame your strongest suit, and its blouson bodice is forgiving on the tummy front.
