A Guide to Lantern Sleeve Dresses

A lantern sleeve dress is an elegant garment with a long gathered sleeve attached to a drop-shoulder piece. It can be short or long and has a high neck and full hem. A tiered dress is a good example of this style. The measurements will vary depending on the size of the piece and the amount of flare you want. The length and width of the flare will be determined by the size of the pattern.
