There’s a reason why wedding dresses with slits are having a moment - it’s bold, elegant, and adds just the right amount of unexpected drama to your bridal look. The slit has gracefully made its way back into the bridal world, proving that you can show some leg while also exuding timeless sophistication and romance.

Rebecca Ingram – Style 25RB343
This modern basque waist gown redefines minimalism with its crepe fabric and off-the-shoulder long sleeves. But what really turns heads? The artful slit that runs up the sleek skirt, giving you freedom to move - and twirl - while showing off a little leg. Paired with the romantic cowl neckline, this dress is the perfect balance of structure and softness.

 


Rebecca Ingram – Style 25RS321
This A-line beauty combines lightweight chiffon, satin, and stretch fabric for that dreamy bridal floatiness - with a slit that adds a flirtatious wink. The neckline is a total chameleon: strapless, sweetheart, scoop, even cat-eye - all brought together with detachable off-the-shoulder sleeves. Whether you’re walking down a beach aisle or dancing under fairy lights, this gown moves with you.

 


Sincerity by Justin Alexander – Style 44445
This charmeuse fit and flare gown features a ruched bodice and skirt that drapes beautifully over every curve. The slit is the cherry on top, offering both drama and ease. With its strapless neckline and luxe fabric, this gown is made for the bride who wants to feel sultry yet elegant.

 


Justin Alexander Signature – Style 99311
This silk Mikado A-line dress is the definition of sophisticated edge. The high-low skirt adds couture vibes, while the rounded strapless neckline keeps it classic. But it’s the thigh-high slit that brings the wow-factor, giving you the freedom to flash your shoes, your personality, and your confidence.

 


Bridal gowns with slits aren’t just trendy - they’re empowering! They allow you to move freely, show off your heels, and bring a bit of sass to an otherwise classic silhouette. Whether subtle or dramatic, a lit turns a gorgeous gown into a statement piece!
