Wedding dresses with sleeves are this year’s hot trend, you heard it here first! Full-length sleeves really are a bride’s best friend too. They offer plenty of coverage, discreetly cover the tricky upper arm area and make a modern style statement that will ensure you stand out from the crowd.
With the extra coverage wedding, dresses with sleeves offer you can also play around with a more revealing neckline. Both Meghan Markle’s chic bateau neckline and Kate Middleton’s plunging lace illusion version were the perfect complements to their dresses’ full-length sleeves.
Below we have two fabulous new wedding dresses with sleeves in two totally different styles. Grace is all about contemporary cool while Kate is beautifully traditional. Read on to discover your favourite…
Modern elegance
Grace is a flattering A-line design that really will make you feel like royalty. Made from soft crepe, the three-quarter-length sleeves and high neckline give it a chic contemporary feel.

The bodice is all about on-trend simplicity and the flattering high neckline, combined with the sleeves, offers plenty of coverage. It’s also the perfect blank canvas for adding a few sparkling accessories too. And, if you’d prefer a slightly different length, the sleeves can be easily altered.
Stylish detailing
At the back there’s a sleek row of covered buttons that continues all the way down the train, drawing attention to the dramatic skirt.
Choices, choices
The beauty of this simple design is that it can be dressed up or down to suit your look. With think, it looks amazing with our sparkly Solstice belt and a suitably regal tiara, but it’s totally up to you! Drop into one of our stores and our expert staff can show you how to accessorise this design in endless different ways.
A flattering A-line
This glamorous A-line skirt is super flattering for all figures. The weight of the soft crepe also helps to create a beautiful draping effect. If you’d like a little more volume, try this with our 163 underskirt too. And, if you love this design but would prefer a sheath style, take a look at Markle. Alternatively, for versions with straps or strapless, try Porsha or Georgina.
Fit for a princess
Kate is a vintage-inspired gown with eye-catching lace sleeves and an absolutely fabulous ball gown skirt made from swathes of soft tulle.

Time for close up Take a closer look at the exquisite bodice and you’ll see that embroidered and Chantilly lace has been layered up to create a sumptuously textured vintage look.
Wow-factor lacing The luxurious lacing here is the all-important feature, as it pulls the bodice in to hug the curves perfectly. The delicate lace across the shoulders is also ideal for brides who are looking for a little more coverage.
Simple styling
The detailing here is so striking you can keep it simple with your accessories. Our lace-edged Willa veil will complement this design perfectly. Then a stunning focal point, like our Millenia belt, is the only other finishing touch you’ll need.
Turn up the volume
The skirt, made from layers of soft tulle, looks even more fabulous worn with two of our underskirts for maximum volume. Alternatively, if you love this look but would prefer a lower neckline, you might like pretty Aviana. We also have Mallory, with thin straps, or Kimberley, which is a strapless version.
