147-Year-Old Great-Great-Grandmother’s Wedding Dress Lost by Dry Cleaners, Found by Internet
As bride-to-be Tess Newall prepared for her big day, she knew that wedding dress shopping was one task she could scratch off her to-do list. Rather than purchase a new gown, Newall planned to wear her great-great-grandmother's handmade dress. At 147 years old, the garment was an irreplaceable family heirloom, and Newall was honored to wear it on her wedding day. Afterward, she brought the dress to Kleen Cleaners in Edinburgh, Scotland, to be dry cleaned.
