These wedding gloves have a glossy finish and make your arms look slender. I only used them once at my wedding. They are long, reaching up to around the elbow. Please check the attached photos for how they look when worn (photo 3). There are no noticeable stains, but there is a slight fraying on the left elbow (photo 2). Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to used items or home storage. #weddinggloves #wedding #gloves
