Very cool idea on the Coquette website. A friend of hers made this lighted wedding dress for her friend Julia's beachy evening wedding in Hawaii. Very cool indeed. I would say she lit up the groom's life : ) Sorry Debbie Boone!
Alison writes: It was decided that the dress should honor the metallic look but with a vintage inspired style. To do this, I focused on creating a soft and glowing design that played with the Victorian shape of the dress. The lighting design was intended to be simple with warm and cool whites. There were no flashing bulbs or severe bright spots. The spectacle of a lighted dress is enough on its own, There was no need to over do it with intense changing colors or a blinding reflection.

So to those of you who want something that gives the illusion of the future, a 2010 dress : ) or if you are having an evening wedding, you may want to check out the Luminex fabric which can be purchased directly from the Luminex Corporation. To work with it, get a sample from http://www.romanillumination.com/.
