Wearing a cape, detachable sleeves, bolero, bodysuit or jacket is a beautiful way to add coverage and have two looks in one if you don\u2019t want to be covered during your reception. If a fitted gown is of concern, you may be able to add a detachable overskirt over the top.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">We hope this helped you confidently begin your search for modest wedding dresses!
