Wedding Dresses with Sleeves

Whatever your reason for wanting sleeves on your wedding dress there are a whole host of options available to you! Sleeves are elegant and timeless, ensuring your bridal look is on trend today and still current when you show off your wedding pictures many years from now.

Sleeves are available in various forms and come in a wide range of fabrics and lace. Full length and three quarter length sleeves are very popular with our brides. When choosing what type of sleeve to opt for you may want to keep in mind the time of year your wedding is, and how much of your arms you want to cover up before deciding whether full length is really the sleeve for you!

What type of sleeve on a wedding dress is the one for you?

If full length and three-quarter sleeves are not for you, the options are still numerous! Off the shoulder, on the shoulder, puff sleeves or cap sleeves to name but a few! There are so many options available!

During your bridal appointment be open and honest with your stylist about your requirement for sleeves. You will know when you put on a dress if that particular sleeve meets your needs and if it feels comfortable for you to wear all day.

What bespoke sleeve options are available?

We recently had a bride fall head over heels in love with a dress that didn’t have sleeves, but on her list of requirements was full length sleeves! No problem, we ordered extra fabric from our designer and our talented seamstress added sleeves to the dress. You would not know that the dress had not been designed with full length sleeves. This does not work for all dresses, however, as we look after all the fittings at Sass & Grace you can rest assured that if we promise we can add sleeves for you we will certainly deliver on that promise.

Off the shoulder sleeves are really easy to create. These can also be put on poppers so you can detach them to carry your look from day to evening.

Some of our brides choose to opt for a bolero to wear over their dress. This enables them to have their sleeves for the ceremony but take off the bolero come the evening for a more party look to their bridal outfit.
