The Classic Way

The idea of tucking up the sleeves is good for the warm season - late spring and summer, when the cuffs create unnecessary discomfort and provoke sweating of the wrists.

Shirt with trousers

This method is found under different names - someone calls it "up to the elbow", someone likes it more "to the forearm". The first option takes place, but the second is rather erroneous. The forearm is the part of the arm from the elbow to the carpal bone, that is, it is physically impossible to roll up the sleeves "to the forearm".

But back to the instructions.

How to make shirt sleeve twists in a classic way:

  1. Put on the shirt, leaving the buttons on the cuffs unbuttoned;
  2. The cuffs rotted upwards, gently spreading across the entire width;
  3. Again, wrap the sleeve towards the elbow - take the width of the collar the same as that of the cuff;
  4. Repeat the previous step until you get to the elbow.

Elbow-length sleeves

This method can be adapted in different ways - roll the sleeves exactly to the elbow, above it or leave the twist in the middle of the forearm - depends on the overall image and thickness of the material.

So you can decorate the sleeves of classic white shirts in a business style, as well as oversize models - their free sleeves when rolling turn out to be a little careless, thereby enhancing the relaxation of the outfit.

The Italian Way

The trick of the Italian way is to demonstrate the colored underside. Therefore, choose a shirt with a contrasting lining. You will get a fashionable bow, which will definitely stand out from the crowd with its brightness and provocativeness.

Old clothes in a new way

  1. Put on your shirt, straighten your sleeves and leave the buttons on your cuffs unbuttoned;
  2. Bend the cuff upwards and, grasping the edge, stretch it towards the elbow, slightly not reaching it;
  3. Go back to the bottom of the sleeve - now it reaches about the middle of the forearm. Roll it up, as in the first method 1-2 times.

As a result, you should have a rolled up sleeve with a colored cuff sticking out a little from under the collar.

Elegant

This type of sleeve rolling will appeal to lovers of exquisite and sophisticated shirts:

  1. Unbutton the cuff, and then turn it out;
  2. Raise it above the level of the elbow;
  3. Raise the rest of the sleeve so that the collar reaches the bottom edge of the cuff.

Elegant sunset sleeves

In one layer

This is the simplest option, suitable for looks in the style of casual and grunge. Try it with a shirt with too long sleeves:

  1. Unbutton the buttons on the cuffs;
  2. Casually tuck the sleeves into one layer.

One-time twist

With a button

There are shirts that already have special buttons or buttons on the sleeves to open your hands in a couple of seconds. Such models have lost relevance in recent years, but basic shirts of a free cut still take place.

Tucked sleeves – how to wear fashionably

A shirt is a universal item in the wardrobe. We learned to wear a shirt with buttoned sleeves, but not everything is clear with the collars yet. We have collected all the fashion options in one place so that you know how to beat the image.

On top of a turtleneck

In winter, wearing shirts is not the best and far from the warmest option. But there is a way out - to wear it over a turtleneck. And if the long sleeve does not look so impressive, then the rolled up turtleneck with peeking out sleeves looks stunningly stylish.
