Melancholia Wedding Dress

Last night, I saw Melancholia, a slow moving movie about a wedding gone awry and the end of the world. The film is a visceral vision of depression and destruction. One of the lovely leading ladies in the movie is Kirsten Dunst, who plays the beautiful but deeply depressed bride. For most of the movie, Dunst dons an exquisite romantic strapless cleavage baring gown made with silky layers of light airy tulle and a bolero with a circlet of soft roses. Honestly, I was more involved with the wedding (love the scene where the guests send sky lanterns into the night sky) and the wedding dress than the rest of the movie. As for Dunst, she looked absolutely stunning as the blushing bride. The dress is rumored to be the creation of costume designer, Manon Rasmussen. See trailer below.
