A knock-off of Bella Swan’s wedding dress (Twilight‘s heroine, in case you’ve been living under a rock for three years) just went on sale (at left) and it got us thinking about memorable movie wedding dresses.

From the classic to the garish, we’ve rounded up some truly unforgettable wedding gowns from all different eras. Click through to see yards of tulle and lace and dreams and butterflies on gorgeous actresses. Sigh.

Peep Emma Watson’s Golden Spread in September i-D: Watson doesn’t cover the mag but looks uber cool in a photo spread, sporting slicked hair, red lips and nails and an enviable boxy gold-sequined jacket. {Styleite}

A Super Articulate Kellan Lutz Dishes that His Twilight Co-Star Robert Pattinson Is Designing His Own Line

Could Robert Pattinson be the next Karl Lagerfeld?

Probably not. But the famously-bedheaded-star may have plans to follow in his footsteps (without the whole diet-coke-only-diet, we hope). Apparently, after R.Patz heard fellow Twilight star Kellan Lutz was launching his own Venice-beach-influenced line, Abbot + Main, the tween heartthrob felt inspired.

“Rob and I were talking about doing a clothing line together!” Lutz told E reporters last week.

“He didn’t know I was doing mine,” Lutz went on. “He’s like ‘I should do one’ and I’m like ‘Oh’. And he found out I was doing one and he’s like ‘Really?’ It was really funny. He wants to do one too.” Wow, Kellan is way more articulate than we would have thought.

The beefcake actor-turned-fashion-designer also offered R.Patz some suggestions on what Rob might call his line:

Things That Make Us Go WTF: Beauty Edition

We all know there’s a lot of unnecessary beauty products out there. The beauty of beauty, however, is that everyone has a different need. You may never use an eyelash curler, but your best friend may feel absolutely lost without it. The beauty industry can always convince someone that they need SOMETHING.

That being said, we can conclusively say that no one needs any of the following items. From your pubes to your dog, these products and trends are completely ridiculous. (Of course, who ever thought people would be putting toxins into their faces to get rid of wrinkles?) Click through to check them out:

Rumor Denied: Bella Swan Won’t Wed in Zac Posen

Earlier this month, ET reported that Zac Posen would design Bella Swan’s wedding dress for the last Twilight film. The rumor swept the internet, and seemed to make sense as Stewart herself is a big fan of Posen’s designs on the red carpet.

But this past weekend Posen took to Twitter to deny the rumor. “Heard the bella/twilight rumor and it’s just that. I design for real women like Kristen Stewart and Anna Kendrick,” Posen tweeted. Hopefully Bella won’t walk the aisle in a knock off, like Fleur Delacourt’s McQueen copy in Harry Potter.

Fashion News Roundup: Madonna Can’t Borrow Lanvin for H&M, Zac Posen Will Design Bella Swan’s Wedding Dress and Karen Elson Cops to Copying Christina Hendricks’ Hair

Keds Goes Back to The 90s: Keds has released a limited edition collection of sneakers called “Alternative to Everything.” We’re absolutely smitten with these 90s-inspired sneakers, which come in acid wash blue, gray denim and red plaid. {Refinery 29}

Copied Dye Job: Christina Hendricks told Harper’s Bazaar that way back when she was a model, she told Karen Elson that she should be a red head and gave Elson her formula. Now Elson’s confessed that Hendrick’s did, in fact, inspire her to go red. {The Cut}

Lanvin x H&M Drama: When Jennifer Lopez and Madonna both asked to “borrow” (i.e. have it before anyone else) pieces from the Lanvin x H&M collection, they were told that no one was allowed to wear the collection before the runway show on November 18. If this is true, then why were a few British celebs pictured wearing pieces from the collection at London’s Lanvin preview? Sure, Roisin Murphy and Sohpie Ellis-Bextor are celebs, but they’re no Madonna. What gives? {Elle}
