Okay so it's not exactly the same — it's cream-colored instead of white and doesn't come with a 10-foot train, but for only $299, it's pretty gosh darn close.

It also comes in sizes 2 through 14.

The lace, the flared bottom, the button-lined back?? It's too much for my gentle soul to handle.

Whether you're engaged or happily single, you owe it to yourself to buy this dress, even if you just wear it while lounging around the house.

So go out and get the dress of your dreams, but remember that gown or no gown, you can still be a queen.
