Long Sleeves, do they exist?

Bridal salons seem to offer one style: strapless. Is there any hope to finding a dress with sleeves that is actually attractive and young?

Check out latterdaybride.com.  They have some cute stuff with sleeves.

I'm a fan of the bolero jacket... even if your dress doesn't have one, maybe the dress designer makes 'em and you can order it separately to go with your dress (I've ordered a separate bolero in silk satin to go with the bottom of my maggie sottero dress due in in December), or have one made, or find one on line.  As for sleeves, I have just discovered that David's bridal sells a coupla' styles that are attachable/detachable to the tops/shoulders of strapless gowns.  They don't look particularly couture but it's an idea for your seamtress maybe.  Hope this helps.

I don't know where you're located or what your budget is but you could try Kleinfeld.

Of course!  I had a Casablanca gown customized with long sleeves.  Jasmine Bridal also customizes. www.casablancabridal.com www.jasminebridal.com

They very much do exist. I was in love with one of the 2010 pronovias gowns which has elbow-length sleeves but ended up going with a style more appropriate for a July wedding in a non-air conditioned church, haha.Pronovias - Chiara -- don't want to stretch the page with PIP but here's a link, it's the 3rd row down on the page and the 1st dress on the page also has sleeves http://tinyurl.com/qfx8zcgood luck!
