In the new movie, Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan wears a $35,000 Carolina Herrera wedding gown for her marriage to vampire Edward, played by Robert Pattinson. A replica of the satin gown, which features long sleeves, a lace back, and 152 buttons, is currently being sold by bridal design house Alfred Angelo for a bargain $799. The Angelo design features a cheaper brand of lace and a few less buttons (132) but that isn’t deterring Twilight fans, many of whom are allegedly faking engagements just to get into Alfred Angelo salons across the country to try on the dress.
