Channel Your Inner Olivia Wilde With This Subtle Style Tip
Style risks come in all shapes, sizes, and forms. Maybe you're attracted to bright colors and textured fabrics, or perhaps you prefer to experiment with vibrant prints and funky silhouettes. Olivia Wilde's style constantly serves as an inspiration for all things on-trend, and her most recent outfit formula is no different.
A quick look at Wilde's portfolio of red-carpet events reveals that the actor has a thing for puffy-sleeve dresses. While puffy sleeves may conjure up a not-so-stylish Seinfeld moment for some, Wilde continues to nail the trend in the chicest possible way. Whether it's a cape cut, a ruffled cuff, or a full-on balloon sleeve, Wilde has proven that puffy sleeves are back and they're here to stay. Ahead, The Zoe Report breaks down Wilde's best puffy-sleeve outfits, as well as the top products on the market to recreate the look yourself.

On Sept. 17, Wilde was photographed at the world premiere of the Audi E-tron in California wearing a cream-colored, puffy-sleeve dress from Kate Spade New York's Spring 2019 collection. She paired the dainty, textured midi dress with hammered gold hoops and layered necklaces. The actor wore her hair in a loosely pulled-back bun with a soft smoky eye.
