Alfred Angelo to Manufacture Twilight Wedding Dress
Good news for Twilight fans: Alfred Angelo will be reproducing Bella Swan’s wedding dress this fall as part of a new line called Twilight Bridal by Alfred Angelo! Following the release of Breaking Dawn Part 1 on November 18th, a replica of the dress worn by Kristen Stewart in the film will hit stores. The dress will be priced in the same range as Alfred Angelo’s other styles and will be available in a wide range of sizes (from 0 to 30W). Bella’s actual wedding dress in the movie is by designer Carolina Herrera, but the appearance of the dress has been kept under wraps. You can, however, catch some glimpses of Bella’s veil, crystal hair comb and engagement ring in the official trailer (watch here).
