Tea-Length Bridal & Formal Dresses

You may ask, "What exactly is a tea-length wedding dress or prom gown?" The basic definition is a dress with a hem that falls below the knee and above the ankle. If you’re looking for a sweet and slightly retro wedding dress, tea length is a good choice. Easier to wear than a full-length gown, tea-length evening dresses are effortlessly cool. They are also a great option for shoe-addicted women who can show off their footwear to full effect. Tea-length special occasion dresses fall below the knee and above the ankle. Originally the hem used to sit just above the ankle, but in modern designs, it’s usually mid-calf. You’ll find authentic vintage tea-length bridal formal dresses are a bit longer than more contemporary designs.
