Melanie Barnett's Wedding Dress from The Game TV Show, Designed by Stacy Beverly

12/03/2009 - 10:30PM · Posted by BlaqVixenBeauty
Editor's Note: Since this topic remains one of our most popular posts, we've updated it to include Stacy Beverly's response. I haven't found any new information concerning the dress thus far.

In reference to Melanie's unique white gown, all I can manage to say is, "Wow!" I knew that a couple of you would want to know what her dress looked like but I never thought I would get requests on where to buy it! First of all, I want to reiterate the fact that Stacy Beverly, the costume designer for The Game and Girlfriends, designed it. I managed to contact her on Facebook. Here is what she wrote back:

Thank you so much for your kind words and support. I had no idea that Melanie's wedding dress would go over so big...who knew? Unfortunately, because the show was canceled I have no access to the pattern or the dress. The studio owns it all, which is why costume designers have to begin to negotiate terms for ownership of their designs and creations.

Which means: No, you cannot go into stores and buy this dress. Also, please note that if you send me an email asking me where you can buy this particular dress, I'll simply redirect you back to this post as I haven't discovered any new information since then. Sorry guys!

I actually recommend that you get a dress like this made for best results. Simply print the above picture, find a seamstress in your area and have them replicate the style. Let's take a look at the actual wedding dress that Tia Mowry wore at her own wedding:

I'm actually diffing this look. My wedding gown was form fitting but I can see myself slipping into this nicely. I love the no veil...I might have added a small follow, though.

I've always wanted to wear a short dress for my wedding in the near future not being too much of a girly girl (the long dress excess stuff seemed too much) & melanie's dress is the bestttttt i've seen. They should definitely put this one & variations of it in stores soon- -the other's don't compare -too short -not enough for a wedding -Melanie's dress works -i love it.

@Anon Stacey Beverly didn't give this particular dress a name...can't buy the dress because it is one-of-a-kind. It was created specifically for the season finale. You might just want to print up the picture, go to a seamstress and have them create the dress for you. Hope this helps.

I have a friend getting married in November and It looks like I will be making the dress for her...I did have some questions for Stacy though that could make the process a lot less stressful...can you ask her to add me on
Facebook, I can't seem to find her profile and I would like to ask her a few questions about fabric and the gathering on the skirt.
Many thanks!
