The sleeves gained bulk, created by structures that can be developed by foam and brass, with the own fabric or with ruffles and shoulder pieces. The marked shouders are not necessarily composed by the extreme bulk, they also can be defined by different cutouts, textures or prints.

The trend had already started to appear on the streets, creating 80’s looks and basic compositions making sure elegance to those who wear it. All depends about the fabric, the modeling, the garment’s composition or the ocasion.

The advantage about that trend is that enhance the female silhouette. The marked shoulders contrasts with the waist, making it shows thinly and when compared with the hips, shows an equilibrium givin the body the hourglass form. Than, the curves be more defined letting the body feminine and sexy.

Beyond looks feminine, the marked shoulders are inspired in the 40’s, when the shoulder piece was created. At that time, the world was passing trhough a depression during the 2nd World War. The women passed to work out to help at home, many times taking up the men character. That way the garments become a representation of the strong and feminility at the same time; what also defines the today’s woman, that are into the market business but dont loose the feminine charm away.
