Description
Yellow star opera gloves with a character of their own. The You Are a Star print features a star in cat-eye sunglasses and black boots, drawn by Quirk founder and designer Melynda using watercolor pens. Black outlines stand out against a white ground, while crushed velvet gives the illustration a soft sheen.
The story behind You Are a Star
This is Melynda’s original hand-drawn artwork. Asked whether the character is a boy or a girl, her answer is simple: “It’s a star!” That playful independence feels right at home on a pair of long evening gloves. Meet Melynda and learn more about Quirk.
Yellow star opera gloves in crushed velvet
These long gloves are handmade to order in stretchy velour. The over-elbow silhouette gives the star print room to run from the fingers up the arm, with approximately 16 inches (40.6 cm) from wrist to hem. The exact position above your elbow will depend on your arm length. Each order includes one pair, and either glove can be worn on either hand.
- Yellow stars with black outlines on white
- Plush crushed velvet finish with stretch
- Long, over-elbow cut
- Small, Medium and Large
- One pair; other clothing and accessories in the photographs are not included
Choose by hand measurements
Use a tape measure around your knuckles and from the tip of your middle finger to the base of your hand. Compare both measurements with this chart. The measurements describe your hand, not the finished glove. If you fall between sizes or the measurements suggest different sizes, contact us for sizing help before ordering.
| Size | Around knuckles | Hand length |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 6–7 in / 16–17.8 cm | 6–6.7 in / 16–17 cm |
| Medium | 7.1–8 in / 17.9–20.3 cm | 6.8–7 in / 17.1–18 cm |
| Large | 8.1–8.5 in / 20.4–21.6 cm | 7.1–7.5 in / 18.1–19 cm |
Let the stars lead
Wear them with a black sleeveless dress to keep the print in focus, or pick up the yellow with a single accessory. A bare neckline leaves the long gloves room to be the main detail. Prefer a cool-toned print? See our turquoise Quirk opera gloves in the same long silhouette.
