Since fashion will leave you with no choice, just be prepared: <strong>sleeves are getting extra long this season<\/strong>, completely covering both hands and creating slouchy silhouettes.<\/p>\n<p>Having d\u00e9j\u00e0-vu? Well, those overhyped hoodies from <strong>Vetements<\/strong> might be popping up in your mind right now \u2014 a laid-back luxury brand that is still all over the street style circuit since its breakthrough two years ago. But no, I\u2019m not specifically pointing at those constantly sold-out designs from <strong>Demna Gvasalia<\/strong>. Nevertheless, designers still need to be mentioned when it comes to actual fashion: with his last collections, he actually pioneered one of the major fashion trends 2017 &#8212; <strong>elongated sleeves<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p>Instead of dying down as a short-lived trend, as many fashion editors predicted after the first Vetements hype wave, the overlong sleeves so typical of the brand\u2019s aesthetic surprisingly made their way into a lot of other brands&#8217; collections. This season, they got picked up by so many other designers that <strong>the hype literally became one of the main fashion trends for 2017<\/strong>. Seen at Dior\u2019s, at Marni\u2019s, at Loewe\u2019s and at Chlo\u00e9\u2019s shows, it seems like avant-garde <strong>sleeves have to be extra-long, extra-large and extra Vetements-inspired<\/strong>, nowadays.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, extra-long sleeves might not be super practical to wear, but since when does fashion care about being down-to-earth? We still have to figure out how to survive a whole day without using our hands though. No food, no smartphone, no elevator (in case your sleeves get stuck in the doors). Scare or dare? We say: let\u2019s go for it. We can still think about how to handle our mummed hands later. Right now, <strong>we are longing for longer sleeves<\/strong>.
