Sweeping skirt, floating sleeves

Hello,

I have two questions concerning clothes:

1. What does it mean when someone is wearing a "sweeping skirt"? Is it a floor-length skirt or rather a wide skirt or something different?

2. What do "floating sleeves" mean?

Thank you very much four your answers. They are very helpful.

1. What does it mean when someone is wearing a "sweeping skirt"? Is it a floor-length skirt or rather a wide skirt-- Both of these, I think.
