If you dislike your arms but feel too "covered" by a long sleeve dress, consider a sheer angel wing sleeve like this one. Though the arms are technically concealed, the chiffon sleeves provide partial visibility and a practical lengthwise split allows full range of motion. A matching front and back plunging V neck (trimmed in clear rhinestones, no less) adds allure without revealing too much.

Very Liz Taylor circa 1969.
