Wedding dresses are designed to be beautiful, but they're not always designed to be practical. Regardless, many brides are willing to make some sacrifices for their big day. Princess tulle that's tough to get on and off? A mermaid skirt that's hard to maneuver? A strapless neckline that needs some securing? They're all worth the hassle if they make you feel like your best self. There's one modern fashion detail that's all about convenience, though: pockets. Didn't think you could score them on your bridal gown? Think again. The beloved adornments have made their rounds throughout the industry.
Who doesn't love the look and feel of pockets? They're cozy, cute, and convenient, and luckily for brides, wedding dress designers are now debuting gowns that come equipped with the sewn-in compartments. That's right: Go ahead and slip your lip gloss, your vows, or even a snack in there—no need to carry a clutch! Chic enough for your wedding day, but just as useful as your favorite pair of jeans, we found a number of new wedding dresses featuring pockets.
These looks are incredibly diverse, plus they boast tags from some of the industry's most reputable labels. Traditional (like this Spring 2020 Lela Rose number) or trendy, romantic or bohemian, short or long, white or colorful—the wedding world is offering more pocket-adorned dresses than ever before. The pockets themselves are also pretty varied, from lacey, decorative add-ons to sleek, hidden inserts. Take your pick, then go forth and practice your best hand-in-pocket pose!
