sleeveless
This term is primarily used in the context of fashion and garment design to describe clothing that lacks sleeves, leaving the arms entirely bare. It is a neutral, descriptive term used across all registers, from technical tailoring specifications to casual everyday conversation.
While it describes a physical absence, it often carries connotations of warmth-appropriate attire, typically associated with summer wear or athletic gear. It is distinct from "cap-sleeved" or "short-sleeved," as it implies the complete omission of the sleeve structure rather than a shortened version.
