Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty Kundra can pull off any look with style, even one with unusual sleeves. The star recently stepped out for an event in a gorgeous white off-shoulder gown by Maison Nabooda that also featured dramatic sleeves.

Since the dress featured a low neckline, Shilpa accessorised the dress with a stunning beaded choker. In the shoe department, the star opted for a killer pair of metallic heels. For her makeup, she chose to go for smokey eyes and nude lipstick. Keeping the focus on the dress, Kundra decided to go with a sleek ponytail.

While the gown was pure white it had interesting features that made it a standout. The pleated cape sleeves on the column dress were the most striking part as it added a whole new dimension to her style. A small detail like sleeves can make a huge impact on the look you are trying to achieve. While the colour, fit and style of a dress are important details to make note of when picking a gown, you should also take notice of the sleeves.

Here are a few sleeve designs you can try with your dress for your next big event.

1. Raglan sleeves: These sleeves can come in various length and go well with a bodycon gown. If you have a slim figure, this is the style for you. A shimmer or metallic gown with this style will give you a sophisticated look.

2.Kimono sleeves: This Japanese traditional style is a really popular trend that can be worn even as streetwear. However, it can also look sleek with a gown that accentuates the waist and features a V-neck.

3.Bishop sleeves: Designers today have given this old style a modern twist. The sleeves are full length, fitted near the elbow and open up at the bottom. Since the sleeves are big and dramatic, make sure you wear it with a dress that is figure-hugging.

4. Off shoulder sleeves:The off shoulder sleeves are one of the most popular styles worn around the world. You could wear it with a maxi dress or even with traditional wear like lehengas.

5. Butterfly sleeves: This kind of sleep is delicate and is a kind of a cap-puffed combo. It will go well with a dress that features a deep neck and fine jewellery.

6. Puffed sleeves: Puffed up sleeves can be short or long. You can wear it with a glamorous gown or a nice dressy top. They also look super feminine on traditional sarees.
