Winter Wedding Dresses with Sleeves: Unexpected Style

By today’s standards, most wedding dresses feature a cap sleeve, short sleeve, or sleeveless style. It’s rare to see a bride walk down the aisle in a gown that features sleeves of lace, satin, silk, or otherwise. However, when it comes to winter weddings, dresses with sleeves can be an unexpected look that fits in perfectly with the season. At Dimitra Designs, we carry a wonderful selection of winter wedding dresses with sleeves, including some of these favorites:

Tips for Adding Sleeves to Your Winter Wedding Dress

Looking to add sleeves to an existing strapless or strapped wedding gown you already have? Here are Dimitra Design’s best tips for adding sleeves to your wedding dress so that it’s winter appropriate:

• Wear a white cashmere cardigan. Dress up this fashion staple with a few sparkling brooches.
  
• Fur coats are a beautiful way to stay warm under your wedding dress, so consider donning fur or faux fur to complete your look. In terms of color, white is best, but for a
  
  more retro look, see if you can wear your grandmother’s favorite fur. Either way, you’ll look stunning.
• Wear a jacket or bolero made of silk, satin or lace. This standalone accessory is all you need to make your wedding dress complete.
