The Dress is Back

the vivienne westwood wedding dress from sex and the city.jpgRemember when Sex and the City: The Movie came out and that Vivienne Westwood wedding dress Carrie gets stood up in turned out to be available in real-life, costing certain SATC obsessives around 30,000 pounds to have the dress made-to-order?
Well, the dress has been rescaled and re-imagined for the average customer (who has about $10,000 on hand), in a shorter, less cinematic version, available as part of Vivienne’s Gold Label on Net-a-Porter.
So if you’re still running around town acting like “a Carrie,” consider your hopes possible – the dress already sold out (they only had it in a size UK10), but we bet an e-mail to Ms Massenet (founder of NaP) could clear the matter up.
That is, if you really want to wed in the commercial version of the world’s most commercially pushed wedding dress.

The short version is really pretty and I love Vivienne Westwood, but I would rather die than get married in a SATC-related item of clothing.

Actually that short dress was part of that collection all along – it actually appeared in SATC the film in the scene where the 4 gals go to fashion week – it walks the runway.

The shorter version is pretty but it’s kind of ironic that a Vivenne Westwood piece would be so commercialized (I thought at one point she was vehemently anti-commercial).
I just have one question.Does the bird hairpiece come with? Because I must have that…
Sorry, I’m being snarky.

sold out already!
