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.

Glove sizing in inches and centimeters
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.

Ordering for an occasion

These gloves are handmade to order. Review the shipping and delivery information before choosing them for a particular event. Please check your measurements carefully: made-to-order pieces are final sale for change of mind, except where a return is required by law. Your rights for faulty, incorrect or misdescribed items are unaffected. Our returns policy explains how to contact us if there is a problem.

It was my 2nd or 3rd time browsing the site, and my first time purchasing from it. I was familiar with the site and brand (was recommended by a close friend of mine who has good taste), and decided to check it out. I liked the layout of the site, made it pretty easy to look for what I like, and found what I wanted in like 4 minutes after browsing. Paying was straightforward, I received the package in about 10 days (flat fee for shipping), and it fit pretty well. The shirt fit me well, and I liked the length of it which was longer than typical shirts, I appreciated the minimalism of it. All in all, a great purchase! 5 stars.

Went by on a Saturday with my daughter. Melynda was awesome and helpful, as always. We both found things we needed. What I appreciate about Melynda is the personal service and how she honestly cares about if something is "right" for you or not. She actually mended something I had just bought right on the spot (wouldn't let it leave with an almost loose button)! Appreciate her sense of style and will defiantly be headed back.

I've been coming to Quirk for years now. Some of my favorite pieces have come from her shop and I always get compliments. It's the perfect place to get something unique that not everyone has. Top quality items. One of my first pieces I bought from her is a vintage Armani blazer that has become a regular staple piece for me. Still in my rotation years later :) The shopping experience itself is always a treat (coming from someone who doesn't like shopping). Melynda is super welcoming and helpful if you're looking for something in particular. If she doesn't have it, it's likely she will soon, as she's regularly getting new inventory. Also, be sure to check out her shopping events!

I have volunteered at the Fire Relief Free Boutique founded by Melynda for over a month and the whole experience has been amazing, I have seen people affected by the fires leaving the free boutique with a smile on their face after the free shopping experience, that’s something that fulfills the soul. Melynda is a great leader with a big heart, I’m proud to be part of this beautiful project.

I have joyfully followed Melynda and Quirk grow over the past year. Every time I get a little extra money I pop in to get a nice something-or-another for myself and leave with much more; life stories, fashion advice, and sometimes coffee. Each time I leave Quirk I look and feel a little smarter. Keep up the excellent work. -DC

I highly recommend supporting this local business. The owner Melynda has been so generous in helping out fire victims by creating a pop up free clothing boutique, and volunteering her time there. She definitely has a strong eye for fashion and a heart of gold, so I recommend stopping by and supporting her shop!

What a gem! The People's Free Boutique is such a wonderful idea to bring to the community and the volunteers couldn't be more genuine or friendly to the customers. It is very organized and easy to shop. I am so glad this resource exists.
