The Dress

Ruelle by Alexandra Grecco is a beautiful, elegant, and flowy gown. Silk crepe, side slit, and a soft a-line skirt. This is a very lightweight wedding dress, making it super comfortable to wear all day/night and dance in! I absolutely loved wearing this dress for my wedding and received so many compliments.

The dress was professionally dry cleaned and is perfect, except for the 1-2 inches at the bottom. It was an outdoor wedding, so there was a bit of dirt that the cleaners couldn't get out of the dress. I would recommend this to someone that is either a couple inches shorter than me (I am 5'5") or is not planning to wear high heels (mine were 2" block heels), that way you can get that portion of bottom hemmed off! The dirt is most noticeable at the back of the skirt (see last photo for the most noticeable area).

Alterations

Waist was let out for a more comfortable fit. Bust side seams were taken in slightly. Hemmed to hit the floor (I am 5'5'' and wore 2" block heels). Side slit was raised an inch since the dress was originally very long. French bustle added, also had a finger loop which was nice for the first dance. I can also send a video that explains how to do the bustle.
