How to properly and beautifully roll up the sleeves on the shirt
Rolling up the sleeves on the shirt is not only convenient and practical, but also fashionable. Rolled sleeves are worn mostly in casual style clothes.
Since this process has its own characteristics, it is necessary to study the basic ways of rolling up sleeves, so that it is both comfortable and stylish.
Best ways
There are three main ways:
- Up to the shoulder.
- To the elbow.
- In Italian.
The first method is quite simple and convenient. May be suitable for everyday wear or for physical labor, because it frees your hands to the maximum. This allows you to work physically, without being distracted by straightening your shirt.
First you need to unbutton all the buttons on the sleeves and cuffs, then turn out the cuff and continue to roll it up to the forearm. It is necessary to control the width, measuring it across the width of the cuff.
It should be remembered that this style is absolutely not valid for the office!
The next way is up to the elbow. It is perfect for time off from work and for casual-style. With this variant, the sleeves practically do not crumple, which is important if you want to straighten them back.
To perform this method, it is necessary to unbutton the cuff, turn it outwards with the reverse side, wrap it once to hide the cuff, and adjust the sleeve so that it looks neat.
This way of rolling sleeves on a shirt is ideal for those with thin hands.
The method called "in Italian" is possible only if the front and reverse sides of the cuff are of different colors. With this option you need to perform the following steps.
First, undo the buttons on the cuff and turn out the sleeve. Then roll up the cuff so that it almost reaches the elbow. The next step is to take the edge of the shirt and wrap it so that it closes the lower part of the cuff, and as far as it will be visible, you can adjust it yourself.
On the model with a button
On the model with a button, all the above methods are perfect. But with this option, you need to remember some rules:
- it is necessary to bend the sleeves 10-15 cm from the hand;
- in no case do not roll up to the forearm in the business style of clothing, that is, when working in an office in a team;
- Before you roll up your sleeves, do not forget to unbutton the buttons on the cuffs, since not only can you not roll up your sleeves, but you can also tear off the buttons.
