Wedding dresses

[mamadeb]

I'm watching this program called "Say Yes to the Dress".

It's a candid reality show taking place in a huge bridal shop in Manhattan.

And - almost all of the dresses are strapless. None of them have sleeves at all.

What happened? It's like even if they wanted a choice, they didn't get it.

When I was out shopping for wedding and bridesmaid dresses with my friend M last year, most of the dresses we saw were strapless. But a lot of them also came with optional straps or detachable cap sleeves, depending on the design. (All of us in M's wedding party chose to wear straps of some sort--mine and M's just snapped in, and the other bridesmaid, who was about four months pregnant at the time of the wedding, actually had thicker straps sewn in by the bridal shop's seamstress.) But, yeah, it was hard to find anything that had actual, built-in sleeves, and what few I do remember were on bridesmaid dresses, not bridal gowns.
