Kim Kardashian Wedding Dress Replicas Will Still Be Sold At David's Bridal (POLL)

Replicas of Kim Kardashian's famous wedding dress are set to be sold in David's Bridal stores.

Um, David's Bridal, this is kind of awkward, but have you read the Internet at all this week?

They have, but it's too late to stop production on the line of Kimitation dresses, which are due in stores in February, reports Page Six.

The collection, which is based on the three dresses Kim wore for her televised nuptials to soon-to-be ex-husband Kris Humphries on Aug. 20, includes "a 'Kim-inspired tulle ball gown' similar to her dress for the ceremony, and a 'mermaid gown' from the reception." Vera Wang, who designed Kim's real dresses, paired up with David's to create the budget versions, which are set to retail for $1,500, the Wall Street Journal says.

A Page Six reporter asked David's Bridal if the dresses would be pulled from stores, but it looks like they'll still be hanging on the racks come February:

David's Bridal executive VP Brian Beitler told us, "The entire White by Vera Wang spring 2012 collection will be available exclusively at David’s Bridal stores next season."

We're guessing the number of brides lining up to tie the knot in a dress inspired by a 72-day-long marriage is going to be few. Tell us what you think in our poll below:

Quick Poll

Would you get married in a replica of Kim's wedding dress?

Sure! It sounds like a great bargain.

No way! Talk about being cursed.

The weddin dresses will of course be made of short-live material to emulate their namesake!
Lovely!

Kim's wedding dress would look alot more like a wedding dress if the upper part (chest, shoulders and arms) was covered in lace like Kate Middleton's wedding dress. Of course, the bride can always buy a lace bolero jacket or shawl made of sheer fabric to wear over the dress for a more complete wedding dress appearance. Just my opinion.

I agree .. there is nothing special about her dress .. I don't know what a place like David's Bridal would even care about it .. I guess they are more low end than I thought .

No doubt David's Bridal will sell a ton of them.

And to think I made my own wedding dress for less than $50, and the bridesmaid dress (lining, underlining, boning, lace over satin skirt).

What was that about minutes and suckers?

Is everyone on this page high? Its a DRESS. It's not a magic spell that will curse your future marriage. I am having my ceremony in June and I have Kim's body type, I actually loved her reception dress but David's Bridal had a Vera Wang that I was going to settle for since they didn't carry the one she wore at the wedding. I am EXCITED that Vera is making replica's and its only going to be in the $1500 range. Anyone who knows wedding dresses knows that Maggie Sottero, Alfred Angelo, David Tutela, etc can be $2000-$6000!!! So if the ONLY reason people don't want to wear Kim's replicas is because they think they are going to be cursed, then maybe their relationship is doomed before they even tried the dress on. So ridiculous. Stop giving Kim the credit for the dresses anyway, Vera is the designer, Kim just wore it for one night. Its time people give respect to the talent and craftsmanship of the designer and stop letting a quickie marriage ruin the artists work.

What a hoax. She gets over 12 million to get married and decides it's over before it even begins. The fact that she filed so fast and didn't try to work out whatever "issues" they were having as newlyweds just proves she is taking the money and running.

Besides, who are the fools who watched the wedding?

And people think homosexuals are going to ruin marriage? Hate to tell you this... but seems like heterosexual celebrities have already done it. Then turned around and made into profit.

EXACTLY what I keep saying, when every idiot heterosexual twenty-something on earth can rush into a sham marriage at the drop of a hat and then end it in 2 minutes without a second thought, WHY are people so worried that a homosexual couple who have been together for ages and are actually COMMITTED to each other might want to marry? If anything homosexual couples should be looking at imbiciles like Kimmy and want to do anything other than have a standard marriage. Maybe the "Family Focused" types should be more worried about banning publicity seeking idiots from getting married?

I don't know, it's all just so pathetic, and here I didn't think my opinion of the Kardashians could get any lower- but fake weddings for money, and now they are trying to blame the groom (probably so Kim can have an "excuse" to keep her ring and millions in other wedding "presents".

I wonder how much Kim will profit from this? She will probably sue for use of the style....

If it was a real wedding they would have a picture of the husband on the cover of people also. You can tell it's all about the money and all about the Kartrashains:

Very true! He was not involved in any wedding decisions; she and her mother are so power hungry. They could have stuck any man in as the groom, and it wouldn't have mattered. It's sickening.

It is a beautiful dress but there in no way I would wear it. Its cursed and bad luck.

Kim Kardashian has to be the worst all time diva there is. But lets face it she does make a killing on the cash making. She's just having a good run at it. Good Reggie didn't get bitten by the sign of Kims desire---- money.
