Proportion rules I use for broad market fit Big sleeves + open neckline: square, sweetheart, or V-neck Big sleeves + high neck: only if skirt is slimmer and waist is clear Short puff sleeves: safer for warm climates and daily wear Long puff sleeves: better for fall drops, but need lighter fabrics Waist placement that works with puff sleeves Natural waist: most stable for most sizes Empire waist: soft romantic look, good for comfort fit Drop waist: only for strong fashion story and taller customer base A-line skirt sweep targets I often use Commercial puff sleeve: moderate sweep, easier walking and shipping Statement puff sleeve: keep sweep controlled or add slit for movement What are the key production and QC risks for puff-sleeve A-line dresses
I think BOTH are great options and I own some of each
