| The sister wives all got divorced! I guess the ruffles don’t work. |

| Meh, I like them. |

| I didn’t mind it. At first. But I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a single fashion trend take over so broadly and quickly. It’s nuts. |

This will never go away because it's cheaper to make than actually fitting a sleeve correctly. Sometimes they don't even include buttons and button-holes. Same with "pop over" tops.
All you need is a lot of (cheap) fabric and some gathering at the top. And presto, it's a sleeve. No need to fit the armscye or deal with buttons. Rant over. |

I’ve come around on tiered dresses in a mini or midi length (not all the way to the ankle or floor). I like the volume and have found that they are extremely comfortable in the summer.
The green dress upthread is pretty but too fussy for me personally. I like this style in a lightweight cotton or linen, with a flutter or cap sleeve. |

| A slight puffed sleeve is fine but those tiered, prairie style tent dresses are… not good? And the trend is definitely starting to fade, at least outside of DC. |
