15 Dresses That Say ‘Papa, May I Cease Working The Loom & Come To Town?’

Once upon a time, puffy-sleeved sack-like dresses were for ye olde types who spent their days ploughing fields (maybe) and singing sweet ditties (???) while they brushed dust off their wraparound verandas.

Do I know what I’m talking about? No. What I do know is puff-sleeved sack dresses are everywhere right now and we all seem to be channelling an 18th century woman who works the loom. I say this affectionately as I too am firmly on board this trend. So in my own self-interest, I rounded up the best ye olde type dresses around the webs.
