hammer sleeve Explanation: they seem to describe sleeve shapes, rather than jacket styles in Google - I found an illustrated Dictionary of Fashion (see ref) which describes "manica a martello" as :- s.f. Lunga, dall'attaccatura molto larga, si stringe verso il gomito manica a campana, manica a chimono manica a giro manica a guanto manica a martello manica a palloncino manica a pipistrello manica a prosciutto manica a raglan manica a sbuffo manica a tre quarti manica ad aletta manica scampanata -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs 33 mins (2005-10-26 15:11:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It doesn't spound at all a slimming sort of style!
