["Garnish"] undersleeves (and matching decorative collar) by Homue, with two models, one flowery and the other more cristal-like.

I like how those kind of modern accessories in fact echo past ones. here those sleeves reminds me of 18th century "engageantes". You can find another modern take in kimono fashion here.

Whipped cream ruffles sleeves, novelty juban by RumiRock. French me cannot unsee the big Marquise de Pompadour vibe as detachable ruffles like those, called “engageantes” (lit. “inviting”), were a big part of 17/18th century fashion xD
