When picking out a wedding dress, the bride will always want to take her time. There are many different styles from which to choose: the lengths, colors or silhouette. Among these important choices in style which she will need to decide upon is the length of the sleeves. Sleeves may be short, long or three quarter length. There are lots of different sleeveless models available as well. Sometimes it is the best choice for the bride to choose short sleeved wedding dresses, while there are also some times when short sleeves might be considered inappropriate.
If the bride has perfectly rounded shoulders and a wonderful neck and arms she may want to opt for a sleeveless model. However, if the shoulders are somewhat bulky or broad it would be better to choose a short sleeved wedding dress. This will showcase the arm while drawing attention away from the shoulder areas which can appear even more bulky if wearing shorter sleeves.
There are several styles of short sleeves from which to choose once the bride decides on this particular look. Capped sleeves are among the favourite for those wishing to show off their dainty arms. This style of sleeve is a small sleeve that barely crosses below the shoulder.
Petal sleeves are made from two pieces of material which lay across the shoulders. This layered look is a great way to accentuate slender arms. It gives the dress and bride a very delicate look.
There is one short sleeved model which can help compliment the bride no matter what the size or shape of her arms. The off the shoulder sleeves do not cover the shoulders, only the upper portion of the arms.
There is also the basic short sleeve that is a viable option. It is a regular shirt sleeve that covers the upper portion of the arm much like a T-shirt.
Anyway, no matter which wedding dresses with sleeves you like, always remember: style and comfort go hand in hand.
