dresses with off the shoulder sleeves

im not sure how to describe the sleeves--something like strapless but with a little bit of material slanted off the shoulder i was thinking of i remember seeing a picture somewhere with somebody having it..i dont like halter or regular straps and i dont like sleeves and my fh said he doesnt really like the strapless look so i remember liking this look if anybody has pics to post thank you

You may be talking about cap sleeves. My dress has them, but i dont have a pic. Let me see if I can find a pic of a dress with them...

Copy and paste this link, choose off the shoulder under the neckline drop down menu. There's a ton of pics!

depends on the dress. The sleeves aren't there to help you keep the dress up, so that's an important thing to remember. I've worn some that are comfortable some that aren't. Hope that helps!

This was my dress & if they are done right I think they can be fine. I knew I wanted mine to be able to come off & that is where the trouble started. I had velcro put in & they kept popping off all day, so I then used a pin & almost got stabbled. Finally during the reception I took the sleeves off.

But it does give the dress an entirely different look.

I totally agree - that it depends on the type of sleeve - a cap sleeve like SweetCin had is different than what I had - a cap sleeve will not give you the problems that I had because they are more on the shoulder and less on the arm. Sr081906 had ones where there was soem elastic hidden on the inside and she also had no problems. (BTW, sweetcin, you looked SO GOOD - I LOVE it without the cap sleeves!!)

This was Sophies dress (where there was elastic hidden on the inside) I don't think she had the problem I did with 'immobility'

my gown was off the shoulder. It was not uncomfortable at all. My thank you is in my album. You can see my gown.

I know what you're talking about. It's the cap sleeves. I LOVE that look, but be careful because some of them are a little uncomfortable.

Mine comes with Cap sleeves, but I am having them removed when my dress comes in.

Here it is with them:
