Which Wedding Dresses Have Pockets?
Typically, you’ll find pockets in bridal gowns with fuller skirts—think A-line and ball gown silhouettes. Fabrics like mikado, jacquard, and satin are ideal for hiding them seamlessly. They’re less likely to be found in wedding dresses with gossamer overlays like organza, chiffon, tulle, and lace. However, that doesn’t mean they don’t exist! Depending on the design and construction, a clever pocket can be tucked away without disrupting the flow.
So while you may not see them, once your hands find their way in, you’ll wonder how anyone ever goes without. (The answer, of course, is a cute purse!)
Why Pockets Are Everything
We like them in everything—pants, skirts, dresses. They’re so handy for things like phones, a snack, or anything small you’d like to avoid holding perpetually in your hand. Who wouldn’t want pockets? No -one. However, it’s true that not all designs can be a pocket wedding gown– sometimes due to style, sometimes because they aren’t a natural addition to the shape or textile. For instance, a bias-cut, slinky silk crepe dress is no place for pockets–but that’s ok, because a cute clutch or little beaded cross-body is perfect for those occasions!
A Few of Our Favorite Lea-Ann Belter Bridal Gowns with Pockets
Charlotte
A floral embroidered wedding dress with a perfectly tailored strapless bodice, Charlotte’s gorgeous, full circle skirt serves pocket perfection!
Eliza
Another Hyde Park collection gown that packs pockets! Our lace top wedding dress’s sheer long sleeves, plunging neckline and waist-cinching cummerbund, all conspire to create a royal stunner. But it’s her voluminous Mikado skirt with inverted pleats that’s twirl-worthy and useful, thanks to her handy pockets!
Gwen
This floral embossed wedding gown is all about polished elegance. From her rising strapless neckline and paired-down A-line skirt to her crisply arranged cascading back bow. This timeless number also has discreetly placed, oh-so-wonderful pockets. You can strike that casual pose or use them to stash your gloss!
Francesca
Strapless gowns don’t own the pocket-having space! A deep V-neck wedding dress made of our delightfully textured botanical jacquard, Francesca offers more than presence. Her A-line skirt with fabulous up-to-there side slit also sports hidden pockets.
Jacinta
An a line wedding dress with slit and bold, asymmetrical bow, Jacinta is already wow-worthy—but it’s her full skirt and hidden pockets that seal the deal. Stash a note, a hard candy, or nothing at all—just knowing they’re there is magic.
Mercer
Straps are wonderful things, and our square neckline ball gown wedding dress, has them and pockets! Made of our beguiling botanical-embossed jacquard, Mercer also has texture for days.
Roxanne
If you look up timeless wedding dress in the dictionary, you might see Roxanne! Made of abstract floral jacquard, her flatteringly curved, strapless neckline gives way to a lush, full circle skirt with…you guessed it! Pockets!
