Bare Upper Arms
 
This might take some research on my part, but maybe some of you clothes watchers of Stevie would know this:

When was the last time Stevie kept her upper arms bare onstage (generally in a danskin or bikini top)? I want to say the Wild Heart tour. Any bare upper arms since then?

Is this a fashion that's totally extinct in Stevie's wardrobe?

Yeah, I noticed that, too. Almost never. I think right around WH...but then, I'm not good with these things...

Well...Tango/BTM eras, she wore these dressy thingies:

If you are counting soundchecks, Stevie did a show in Florida in '96 and had a bare arm purple dress on.

After a certain age, bare upper arms are often not flattering....

I was watching the San Jose 10/20/89 show the other night and I think it was during BATB she had on the bustier and these weird stocking-like things on her arms and the hooded cape. So there were times that you could see the upper arm/shoulders area. It looked a little weird. :o Not sure if this really counts.

Also during the ENCHANTED TOUR she often wore a bare arm dress, although often with a shawl over it--however you could often see the arms..lol

I guess it counts, although I can't remember that particular aspect.

But, for example, the shot Curtis posted of Stevie at a November or December Tango show definitely counts -- I had forgot all about that (it's no wonder, really).

So at this point, we'll say that 1987 & possibly 1989 was the last time. I don't think she had bare upper arms all the way to her shoulder during the St. Petersburg Pier soundcheck in '96. In fact, I remember that dress as having puffy or loose short sleeves.

EDIT: NOPE, CURTIS IS TOO FAST. Okay, now we're up to the Enchanted tour. Those definitely count. Doesn't matter if there was a shawl over them. Those are bare upper arms that are still visible!!
