Most wedding dresses, in all their white, frilly glory, are worn one time, no matter how much they cost to begin with. They are then resold or relegated to the back of a closet. Renee Zellweger didn’t want her dress to meet the same fate and now that her marriage to country star Kenny Chesney is over, she has reinvented it as a party dress. Renee dyed the Carolina Herrera dress sapphire blue and had it shortened to just above the knee. Given that most celebrities are content to wear a dress only once, it must be a testament either to the designer or to Renee's lack of sentimentality.
