Annalise Dalins celebrates at hens in $5900 dress ahead of one of biggest Aussie celebrity weddings of the year
Make way for the bride of the year (sorry, Taylor).
Annalise Dalins and Josh Daicos are just weeks away from getting hitched after a two-year engagement − and the celebrations have well and truly begun.
The 25-year-old model shared some photos from her recent hens party, wearing an intricate lace and boned gown from bridal designer Kyha.

The dress, which is reported to have a price tag of $5900, was complemented by a simple short veil, which was fastened to the back of her sleek, blown-out tresses, and Temelii jewellery.
Hidden toward the end of the veil were two words embroidered: Mrs Daicos.
And in case you didn’t notice it, her message to all those watching on from home: “Mrs Daicos incoming”.
It’s been a long walk to the aisle for Dalins and the AFL star, whose romance started with a classic Aussie pub crawl after initially meeting in a bar.

“I’d spoken to Anna before on Instagram, but we randomly met one night,” the 27-year-old Collingwood legend tells nine.com.au.
“As soon as I saw her, I saw her smile and it made it so easy to go over there and talk to her, and the conversation just flowed.”
It’s been five years since that fateful night, and Dalins says she has moments she has to “pinch herself”.

“To now get married is really meaningful.”
While the couple are keeping details of the wedding close to their chest, it’s expected Dalins will mark the milestone in a look for the ages.
After all, she has a record of making headlines for her fashion choices.

Just last month, the model dazzled on the Brownlow red carpet wearing $1 million worth of diamonds by the same jeweller, Temelli, and a dress crafted for her by designer Alin Le’Kal.
The black and sheer gown took “five days of hard work and a lot of overtime”, the designer explained.

“With Annalise, we had to do a bit of research with what she has worn in the past, and we went with the complete opposite,” he said on The Archive Podcast’s Instagram account.
“I wanted to bring the sexy back and a bit darker [styling], I would say.”
