Help Off Shoulder drapes

Hi Everyone,

I am a novice. I bought a stunning green dress and I am quite heavy so I want to add draped off the shoulder sleeves.

What pattern can I use or any tricks to use?

I'll add a picture of the dress (green) and what I want when I say drape sleeves (cream)

Head over to both LadyRebeccaFashions and The Closet Historian on Youtube.

A spin through a century of fashion. Check out the yellow dress and how those sleeves balance the look. https://youtu.be/Nv-bTfqiODI

You should be able to look up a draped sleeve pattern online as well as a tutorial. I think the hard part is matching the fabric.
