From a must-have to a trend that has firmly secured its place in the wardrobes of it-girls, puff sleeves have made a powerful return to the runways and are ready to dominate the street style of 2025. Their dramatic flair and timeless charm have made them a staple for both fashion-forward ensembles and everyday chic looks. But what makes this XXL sleeve silhouette with its romantic aesthetic so special?

Defined by their dramatic volume concentrated at the shoulders and tapering toward the cuffs, puff sleeves are anything but dull. They add a bold and sophisticated personality to any outfit. From casual blouses to elegant dresses, they’ve carved a niche both in street style and at special events like Valentine’s night, thanks to their romantic appeal.
