Thanks Ginger! Wrinkles are weird things, because we're always trying to get rid of them, but Regency dresses with small backs seem to necessitate wrinkles if you want to move. Mine doesn't have near the same right angle between the back and side so it doesn't need the point, but I get it now too. It's interesting how the sleeve shape is evolving from the 18th c. style in that way. (I totally saw pics of you in that dress while doing this sleeve research! They were helpful!)
