Those looking for a classic yet modern style to sport at an upcoming holiday party will likely find the new puffed-sleeve dresses from Urban Outfitters appealing.
Offered in a universally flattering forest-green color, the dresses are made soft velvet-like material. This material helps the slim puffed sleeves to hold their shape, and also allows for some dramatic ruching along the neckline as well. With a deep V cut at the neckline, the structured material that comprises the dress is more balanced, making for a design that is able to have a more versatile aesthetic that doesn't look dated.
The puffed-sleeve dresses are currently available from the UO site, as well as from a selection of its in-store locations for approximately $80
