While packing to go away on our vacation, I pulled this dress out of the back of my closet. I thought that a resort vacation would be the perfect setting to wear this dress again. After almost 21 years that is. Yes, you read that right. I have had this dress for a very long time. I did not make it myself unfortunately because at the time I had to study for exams. Hehe... So without further ado...here it is worn for the first time....
My prom dress from 1992! Check out that blonde hair! And my date...HOT stuff that guy.
It's hard to tell from the picture but the dress was floor length. I shortened it and took it in through the bodice. I still love it as much now as I did then. It is a classic style that has stood the test of time and trends. My advice to any girl buying or making a dress for a special occasion is to choose something simple and classic. And a black simple tux! Nothing beats a black tux!
Oh by the way...if you were wondering what ever happened to that hot date of mine...a month after that pic was taken, I walked down the isle with him!
Oh, that is a pretty and classic dress! The length is perfect now. I wish you a great vacations :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Hana! It was a wonderful vacation.
DeleteThe length of your dress now is perfect for a resort vacation and you look so pretty in it. And the story about your prom date... thank you for sharing your sweet story, it brought me a big happy smile :)
ReplyDeleteありがとうございます Yoshimi ! You are so sweet.
DeleteMargo, you look so beautful in this dress! Even more beautiful than you did 21 years ago. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI felt quite emotional reading your post! How amazing that you kept your dress, it still fits (!) and you look better than ever. Oh, and you kept the man, too :)
ReplyDeleteOMG, I don't even recognize you in that old picture. Probably the blonde hair throwing me off. This is the perfect timeless dress so I can see why you kept it so long. Glad it got to have another outing. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautifully worn both times! That's so sweet and fortunate that you found someone so special so young.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! It truly is a classic dress. Wish I had picked something timeless, mine was poofy, with huge doily lace all around the neckline, ah the 90's! :)
ReplyDeleteOh my, though I loved my dresses they did not stand the test of time!
