I absolutely hate 3/4 sleeves especially in what is meant to be warmer clothes. If it cold enough to go mad and wear a cashmere jumper what is the point of the sleeves not reaching your wrists and it should have a long line too , not just to the waist.? I hate any 3/4 sleeves anyway, if you put a cardigan or jacket over it the wretched sleeve makes an annoying ruckle. They think we are stupid and it is a fashion, whereas it is just a way to put less into each jumper. I have suggested to one manufacturer that they have perhaps 3 or 4 of their jumpers that you could choose to have a longer line coming well down. They could just keep it at the headquarters, you try on the short one to see if yo like the pattern/colour on you and then they can send you the longer jumper. To me that makes sense, if it is popular they will see there is a market for it, if not they havent lost much , I wear what I like and what I have that suits what I do. I am a singer so I do have long black velvet style skirts and trousers and bought a great bargain - to me - of a kingfisher blue shirtwaister silk shirt long sleeved. Never dates , looks fine in a church and feel lovely. Paid £12.50 for it about 6 years ago. also have a Batic Geruda long dress and one or two other things that look smart and feel comfortable to sing in. Then the rest of the time it is mostly trousers and cotton and fine wool jumpers in the winter, and thin cotton trousers or shorts and t shirts in the summer. I have sensitive skin so have to be careful what I wear. Cant use ordinary wool jumpers, come up in bumps so save my money and watch out for the sales of cashmere jumpers and then look after them and always hand wash them. So now have about 7 from 2 that are fit to be seen out and are light and easy to put in a rucksac, and 5 that are getting a bit past it but are fine for the garden and for wearing in the house, not putting the heating on. I dont waste money on clothes but quite happy to find that the things that I am wearing happen to be in fashion or the colour is popular sometimes.
