Wanna be the Bella of the ball?
Now “Twilight”fans can buy an exact replica of Bella Swan’s prom dress from the very town Bella bought hers!
Belva Bodey, owner of Black Diamond Bridal in Port Angeles, Wash., has created a to-die-for copy of the layered blue halter dress that Bella (played by Kristen Stewart) wears to the nearby Forks, Wash. high school prom in the “Twilight”movie, according to RadarOnline.com.
“We wanted to give people the opportunity to dress in something festive which Bella wore,”Bodey said, especially since Bella actually shopped in Port Angeles in the book to pick out her prom dress. “If she had shopped in Port Angeles, she would have bought her dress here.”
Bodey and her shop workers found a Chinese company on eBay that specializes in knock-off gowns, and sent in any pictures they could find of the frock pictured in the vampire romance flick.
The finished dresses arrived three weeks later.
“We were blown away. They look exactly like they do in the movie,”Bodey said.
One dress was auctioned off for charity, and three others are on sale in her boutique for a reasonable $130 apiece.
Black Diamond Bridal has also created a replica of the green taffeta party dress and black velvet jacket that Bella is seen wearing in the promotional stills for the upcoming sequel “New Moon.”
“It’s quite fancy,”said Bodey. “Beautiful.”
It’s the perfect “New Moon”opening night outfit, if you can shell out $239. The dresses went on sale Tuesday.
