'Breaking Dawn' Wedding Dress Replica Finally Available At Alfred Angelo (PHOTOS, POLL)

Devoted "Twilight" fans: if you're getting married or, uh, just want to play dress-up, you can now, finally, own Bella's wedding dress.

Carolina Herrera designed the dress that appeared in the movie, but Alfred Angelo's version is almost a perfect replica of her couture creation. With long sleeves, a surprisingly sexy lace cutout back and a long train, it reminds us of another famous wedding dress, no?

On the red carpet at Friday's Los Angeles premiere of the movie, Herrera said that the dress was inspired by Bella's "innocence":

"Well, the inspiration became a little bit by the book," said Herrera on the red carpet at the Los Angeles premiere Monday night. "And the description of the book, and the magic and the moment that is the wedding and also about her (Bella's) personality which is very important in a wedding gown. She is this very innocent girl that is believing in her first true love and there is romance and there is fantasy and mystery. Everything so, I took all that into consideration."

The dress, which comes in sizes 0-30W, is selling for $799 at Alfred Angelo. And for those who want an extra touch, Styleite points out that you can buy a replica of Bella's bridal hair comb and engagement ring for $28 at Hot Topic.

See photos of the dress below, and tell us if you'd tie the knot in Bella's gown.

To each their own, and I'm sure some people would love it and look lovely in it...


...but I think it's hideous.

I'd love to wear this, but i'm 5'2 and NOT 110 lbs. Therefore i gotta loose like 30 lbs just to look that thin. sad.

The back if beautiful.. the front one breast if higher than the other.. Camera person should be fired for that flaw.

the first bridal gown in the wedding is waaay better. the strapless number. i would definitely wear that if i liked having weddings.

Okay, I saw the movie and the gown this is copied from is actually very nice.

Its amazing that people go gaga over "replica" dresses, maybe they will sell one on canal street soon. Wouldn't a bride rather have her own dress and work with the designer just like the character did? If you do some research in your nearest metropolitan towns for example in new york, you can find great up and coming designers who are working with A list celebrities and yet still can create you a wedding/everyday dress for affordable prices. Check it out for yourself. google it. Or visit http://www.laurengabrielson.com to see for yourself.

I'd rather have the sweet simplicity of Catherine Middletons' dress.

This one in the article looks cheap......and not flattering unless you are 6' tall and slim.

I liked Middleton's dress because it looked very much like my mother's wedding dress ... from 1953.

Is that the dress?! There's nothing to it!
02:54 PM on 11/22/2011
The dress will only look good on very slender figures (like Kristin Stewart or Pippa Middleton) so for brides who are full figure, the lines and cut on this dress will not do you any favors. Regardless of who does or does not like it, it wasn't designed for Kristin Stewart, but for her character, Bella, who would most likely wear something this simple in design. If anything, while I found the back gorgeous, it occurred to me that it was a bit "haute couture" for the Bella character. While the price of the dress sounds high, keep in mind, it involved a contract arrangement with Caroline Herrera to confer with the director, actress, seamstresses etc. to produce the garment for a film, most likely with a lot of "rethinks" along the way.

But remember that Alice was in charge of the entire wedding and I am sure she had her say in the choosing of the gown. By the way, I thought Kristin Stewart was breathtaking in the gown.

Bella's actual wedding dress is stunning! This cheap knockoff looks like a cheap knockoff....

Since I'm a heterosexual male, I don't think that I would wear this dress at my wedding.

Have you tried it on? How will you know until you try it on? Please try to keep an open mind--it might look great on you.

I'm just not into cross dressing, although mushroom, sausage and oyster dressing is one of my favorites.
02:10 PM on 11/22/2011
Looks like a very fancy night gown I'm not impressed.
01:56 PM on 11/22/2011
that isa horrid dress- looks like some cheap halloween costume
01:54 PM on 11/22/2011
it is just beautiful, i only wish that i could afford it, and only if i could fit into it because after 25 yrs of marriage well let say ones body is not what it looked like back then and there is a few love handles that i 've acquired in 25 years. but good luck to the woman who wares this dress to her wedding and just be sure its the man you want to marry {don't be a kim kardashian and get all caught up in the thing} so with that being said god bless the marriage of a woman who wares this dress on her wedding day.

Please mean this marks the end of bare shoulders and arms. Seeing all that is just TMI.

I'm in the minority, but I love sleeves. They can be so elegant.

Not even close to ending the strapless trend. It's not easy finding a dress that covers your arms. Short or long sleeves. They are out there but there aren't many. I wish there were, as many women come in to my store looking to be a bit more covered.
