One trend that we, as a designer and boutique, hear from moms all the time is the need for a sleeve on their gown or dress. There’s many reasons why this is so, but just to name a few: maybe it’s slightly chilly where the wedding and reception will take place, she may be a bit insecure about her arms as aging tends to happen to the best of us, or maybe she just likes the way it looks on her and feels it completes the style. Whatever the reason, Siri is here to deliver some beautiful and timeless styles that Mom would adore.

We’ve rounded up 5 of our absolute favorite Siri Mother of the Bride Dresses with Sleeves.

Mother of Bride Dresses with Sleeves -Brittany Dress

We’re all about a classic style that is versatile enough to take you from date night to a special event. The Brittany Dress is just that. The illusion neckline and sleeves add drama in this cut floral organza fabric. The elegant below-the-knee silhouette is perfect for a date night with your love.  We’d definitely think about pairing this chic dress with a slim belt to better accentuate the waist and either some lace up flats for the day or pointed toe slingbacks for night. Jewelry can be kept simple since this fabric speaks for itself. This is one of those Mother of the Bride Dresses with Sleeves that you’ll wear time and time again.

If we can imagine a dress that we’d wear any time we go dancing, the Tabitha Dress would be the dress of our dreams. This dress also has an illusion neckline and sleeves, however, the sleeves are a little extra special. They cross over each other at the shoulder to cover up the top portion of your arm and then proceed to drape and flow in the breeze. The rest of the silhouette cinches you at the waist with subtle ruching and continues into a flowy A-line skirt that hits right at the knee. We’d love to be whisked away in this little number any time.

As a mother, did you ever imagine yourself as a Bond girl? Maybe not the part about being in danger and having Sean Connery, Roger Moore, or Pierce Brosnan come save you, but getting to look as glamorous as their female interest. The Lincoln Center Gown is the gown that makes us feel like the leading lady. We love the slimming, long sleeves on this dress that travels up the arm into a chic cowl neckline. The satin back crepe fabric hugs the body in all the right places making women, tall and short, look statuesque and stunning. This is one Mother of the Bride Dress with Sleeves that we’ll continue to find excuses to wear.

Unless you’re a socialite that goes to many galas, weddings, and other special events, women don’t get to wear long gowns as much as they’d like. When they do, there always seems to be an end goal of looking classic, elegant, and glamorous. The Montclair Gown is the mother of the bride gown that makes us feel regal like an old fashioned movie star. The ruching on the bodice trickles into a flatteromg trumpet skirt. The sleeves hit right below the elbow which is perfect for those chilly nights. Although this dress would look stunning in any color, we can’t help but love this deep shade of red.

An illusion neckline with illusion sleeves never looked so good! The heavier and intricate lace is stunning in the zinfandel color. The keyhole back shows a little skin in a polished manner. The long sleeves and tea length pencil skirt with a scalloped hem add a chic touch to the ever so lovely Katelyn Gown. Pair with a belt or sash to add texture and to accentuate the waist a bit more or just pair with a statement necklace. Either way you’ll feel fabulous.
