Mom Opens Wedding Dress After Thirty
Tap title to read story
Stacy Cohen, who bought a silk and French lace gown in 1992, kept the dress in a sealed gold display box for more than thirty‑two years. She believed the gown, last seen in 1994, was safely preserved in a white preservation box she began using in 1996. Madison, her daughter, planned to repurpose the dress for her own wedding in 2028, hoping to wear it at the rehearsal dinner and perhaps transform it into a robe. On a Sunday afternoon, while Madison was home from Chicago, the two opened the box. Inside, they discovered a different gown, not Stacy’s original. The mix‑up raised fears that the original dress may be lost forever.
