I wore it to Homecoming in 1996. My mom went shopping with me. I love the color green, so this was the dress for me. They did not have my size, so a new one was shipped from a different store. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we went back to the mall to pick it up, my mom felt the need to inspect the dress. There was one thread snagged on the skirt in the front. The cashier suggested we just pull it some more. The other option was to wait for a replacement from five states away. We took home the snagged version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m still searching for the one picture of me in this dress at my date&#8217;s house before Homecoming.
