I bought a dress from Target.com and I love the dress. Unfortunately, the sleeves on the actual dress are much shorter than they appeared on the website. They need to be about 2 inches longer.
Is there anything I can do to make them longer? There's no extra fabric to let down. I can send the darn thing back but I like the fit otherwise and was hoping there's some way to fix those sleeves. Would adding a band of black fabric look weird?
I don't wear sleeveless or cap sleeves due to these lovely upper arm wings I acquired when I lost weight and the skin didn't have much elasticity left.
Even gaining some of the weight back didn't 'refill' them so no sleeveless or cap sleeves for me.. :(Wearing sleeveless could mean I'd be airborne if a stiff breeze blew in. 
So any suggestions?
Here's the dress site so you can see the material-it's a knit.
