Sleeved Wedding Dresses

To help you find the most suitable and beautiful wedding dress for your big day we can offer you some information about wedding dress sleeves and what are the most popular and desired types. If you thought that the wedding dress is all about the bodice and the skirt, you were completely wrong.




There are some great opportunities to cover your shoulders and arms with all kids of sleeves that can give you a more bridal and feminine look. The wedding dress fashion is filled with strapless designs and modern brides desire to look as unique, original, charming and distinctive as possible. But how can they do that if more than a half of the existing wedding dresses have the same design and style? Well, considering the sleeves might be a perfect answer.

A sleeved wedding dress could look even more romantic, attractive, feminine, delicate and elegant than any other wedding dress design. Sleeves can do wonders on a simple wedding dress design and add some elegance, charm, classic and romantic effect to any dull, boring and straight wedding dress.

A sleeved wedding dress usually manages to create a greater visual impact than a regular and common strapless wedding dress. The sleeves are also great for those of you who don’t feel comfortable to leave their arms naked because they aren’t so beautiful. Many structured women with big shoulders and large arms usually choose a sleeved wedding dress to cover them and hide any flaws and blackheads.

To help you choose the most suitable and beautiful type of sleeves for your wedding dress we are going to describe you each type and let you know what sleeve is most appropriated to your body figure. For instance, the cap sleeves are great for brides who have small shoulder and pretty slim arms.

The cap sleeves are renowned for their delicate tiny round style. The petal sleeve type comes for the tulip flower appearance, fragile, subtle, simple, elegant and short. The petal or the tulip sleeve works great for any size and arm shape, especially with those elegant, simple, casual and trendy wedding dress designs.

Another type of sleeve is the t-shirt style that works great for autumnal, winter wedding dresses or for breezy wedding environment. They manage to cover the arm half-way from the shoulder to the elbow. Also known as the medium or short-sleeved wedding dresses, these styles are wonderful for simple, classy and chic weddings.

The balloon sleeves are a bit more unusual among modern bridal wear, because of the full balloon-shape that covers the upper arm, going thinner from the elbow to the wrist. This type is perfect for women with generous busts and large shoulders. For a more dramatic and fairy-tale wedding the balloon sleeves are perfect. The Juliet type of sleeves work best with the traditional wedding dress designs, because they look a little bit puffy on the shoulder and then narrowing to the arm. Don’t wear this kind of dress if you have broad arms.
