We get that strapless gowns and sleeveless cocktail dresses are the usual go-tos for wedding attire, but here’s the thing: It’s winter and we’re cold. All the time. So rather than dealing with a cardigan, jacket or shawl, we’d rather just pick a dress with sleeves to ensure we won’t be freezing all night long. These 32 fancy frocks have the right amount of coverage, so you can focus on just having fun.
