Scandal's Olivia Pope Wears $4,500 Anne Barge Wedding Gown in 100th Episode — the Truth Behind the Dress

We're still gushing over this stunning look!
Scandal’s Olivia Pope Wears $4,500 Anne Barge Wedding Gown in 100th Episode — the Truth Behind the Dress
ABC
By Karen Mizoguchi · Updated October 26, 2020

This article originally appeared on People.com.

Now we know what wedding dress Scandal‘s Olivia Pope would’ve worn if she ever got married to Fitzgerald Grant.
On Thursday’s alt-reality 100th episode, Kerry Washington‘s character walked down the aisle to marry her on-screen love, played by Tony Goldwyn.
Pope, who did not become a Washington, D.C.-based crisis manager, wore a gorgeous Anne Barge wedding gown in the brand’s Berkeley silhouette. The off the shoulder dress featured a ruched silk satin chiffon bodice with voluminous ball gown skirt made of Italian Silk Kalika.

Wondering who designed the #scandal100 wedding dress? It's the Berkeley by Anne Barge. #ScandalABC #Scandal #wedding pic.twitter.com/nn7cvmRbxp

If you too got total Janelle Monae vibes after looking at Olivia’s pearl accents in her hair, you hit the nail right on the head. Washington tweeted: “P.S. my dear @JanelleMonae that wedding hair was TOTALLY inspired by your Golden Globes glam.”

And Scandal‘s creator Shonda Rhimes made sure Olivia’s wedding dress would be unforgettable.

Yes, people. A #SCANDAL100 gift. Olivia Pope in a wedding dress. Here is how we wrote this moment into the script: pic.twitter.com/bmaTkwjkWG

Of course, with the brilliant styling of the show’s costume designer, Lyn Paolo, the wedding gown was perfect.

When @kerrywashington walked into the church everyone applauded and Kerry and I laughed with such joy...such a happy moment #scandal100

This makes me cry every time I watch it #scandal100 https://t.co/LkaSKQdqIH

Rhimes shared a screen grab of the script from tonight’s episode and her style notes. “It’s unbelievable, September-issue worthy, amazeballs — alllll of the adjectives,” the script read.
