Gorgeous Handmade Prom Dress Has Touching Note Tucked Inside For The Lucky Wearer

Sometimes, a dress is much more than a dress. The folks at The Sentimentalist, a designer and vintage bridal shop in Atlanta, understand this well. They aim to provide the best and most inclusive services possible for their customers. One way they do this is through Prom Project. This event gives high schoolers in need the chance to wear formalwear they wouldn’t have been able to afford otherwise. This is possible by donations from generous locals, one of which included a note with her prom dress.

“But among all the pretty pieces, was this handmade dress and personal note to the shopper, wishing them well,” a caption from The Sentimentalist reads, “and literally bringing the whole staff to tears.”

The letter is for “the fabulous person who chooses the green broccoli dress.” Then, on the inside, there’s an entire letter that was clearly written with such genuine love and care.

“I hope prom is only the beginning of a life filled with magical evenings where you look and feel your best!” part of the letter reads. “I made this dress back in 2016 during my senior year of high school. I had so much fun making it, and I’m glad I’m able to pass it on to a well-deserving student.”

By taking the time to include such a heartfelt note, this dress is sure to mean oh-so much to the person who wears it. How cool is that?

It’s no wonder that the folks at The Sentimentalist always look forward to this event every April. The services they provide are sure to leave a lasting impact, sometimes in the most unexpected ways.

“This event with Athena’s Warehouse is always so healing and fun, putting our priorities back in place and giving us a chance to play with all the color and sparkle,” their post continues. “Small business life is pretty sweet when we get to give back and your sentimental moments are never lost on us.”
