Instead of a traditional sewn-in armhole, a dolman sleeve is cut as a single continuous piece with the bodice. It consists of a deep, wide armhole that tapers towards the wrist, creating a roomy and relaxed fit. It forms elegant wings when the arms are raised and hence also called as 'Batwing Sleeve'. The underarm seam extends much lower sometimes reaching all the way to the wrist. This sleeve was popular during mid 19th century and today commonly used in sweaters, blouses, dresses and light jackets.
