(WXYZ) - Moviegoers everywhere rushed out to theaters across the country to have a chance to see one of the biggest movies of the year, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn part 1.

According to www.mtv.com weekend at the Box office, Breaking Dawn grossed an epic sale of $139.5 million dollars in its debut.  

Not only is this film making headlines within the movie industry, it is also being hailed within the fashion industry.

In the film, Bella (Kristen Stewart) gets married. The actual gown that designer Carolina Herrera made for Bella, is now being replicated by Herrera. The replica is available in stores today.

Produced by Summit Entertainment, Twilight could become the highest grossing movie of year.
