Hilary Duff's wedding Dress for Less
Of all the weddings we’ve covered this year, Hilary Duff’s wedding dress is our favorite. There’s something about the figure flattering mermaid cut that is both sexy and sophisticated at the same time. Married August 15, 2010, Hilary Duff wed Mike Comrie in a stunning Vera Wang wedding dress. However, even us smart brides can’t always justify dropping Vera Wang prices on our wedding dress, but that doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice the Vera Wang style.
Here are our top picks if you want to get Hilary Duff’s wedding dress for less:
Plus, don't forget to check out our weekly smart bride deals to save on other every day items.
Totally Tulle: Vera Wang Odette - $3500
Ok, we had to have at least one Vera Wang in our top picks and this size 8 Vera Wang Odette wedding dress is the closet match to Hilary’s dress. Although it is not a true mermaid silhouette, it still hugs your curves just enough, and has the layers of tulle and organza that made Hilary’s dress so spectacular. The best part? It’s available for $3500, a savings of $3200 off its original $6700 price tag.
Just jewels: Lazaro LZ3607 - $2500
Layers of tulle and organza not your thing? Well, how about a bejeweled version of a similar silhouette? This size 8 Lazaro LZ3607 wedding dress still gives you curves, but is covered in elaborate beading to sparkle throughout your big night. Originally a $5800 dress, it’s now for sale for $2500.
Simplicity Rules: Jasmine Bridal F157 – $700 & Demetrios 2820 - $1200
Love the mermaid silhouette, but prefer a cleaner, less textured look? Both options below can fit the bill. Our first choice is the size 10 Jasmine Bridal F157 wedding dress. The only adornment is the jeweled accent just below the bust. Our second choice is a size 8 Demetrios 2820 wedding dress. It has some of the ruched texture of Hilary’s dress across the bodice, but a much simpler skirt. Plus, we’re pretty sure both are a far cry more budget friendly than Hilary’s at $700 and $1200 respectively.
Dramatic Flair: Pronovias Hebra – $780
If you’ve got a dramatic flair that you want to show off on your big day, but still love the texture and silhouette of Hilary’s dress, this size 6 Pronovias Hebra wedding dress is a beautiful option. The asymmetrical ruching of the fabric across the bodice mimics the ruching in Hilary’s dress, but where Hilary’s dress flared with tulle and organza, this one uses yards of ruffles. Now available for $780.
