Need pictures of dress with sleeves.. PLease help!!

Hello Everyone!!

I am a plus size bride who HATES her arms. I am having the hardest time finding a dress. I definietly want sleeves...I am looking for some ideas. I'd love some help finding pics of dresses with either sheer sleeves or with minimal sequencing or lace. I know that a good seamstress could probably make me sleeves. Has anyone had that done for them?

TIA!!!!

I'm having the same problem. Go to theknot.com and do an advanced search for dresses and click on long sleeves box. IT has a ton of pictures. RK bridal in the city has a ton of dresses with sleeves. Hope this helps.

I too am one of the few brides searching for sleeves...the stores have few and far between that dont look straight out of the 80's

Good Luck with your search!

I had trouble finding dresses with sleeves also. Demetrios has a good selection of shear sleeve dresses and so does Jim Hjelm. This was my dress. I thought it was sleevtastic!!!!

Just wanted to say I agree that dresses w/ sleeves are so much nicer. And I'm not plus size, I'm just about average w/ thin arms but I just love lace or sheer sleeves!! I'm still looking for mine. I found some that I am interested in at designer Justin Alexander.
