A long-forgotten wedding dress from 1966 has been given a second chance after a vintage restoration specialist breathed new life into it.

The 33-year-old content creator, who goes online by the name Hobby Bobbins on Instagram, moved to Washington right before the COVID-19 pandemic began. During lockdowns in 2020, she rummaged through estate sales and the thrift stores that were open. She found Washington had a rich treasury of vintage items, far surpassing the few items she found in Florida, where she'd lived previously.
