While other students excitedly talked about dresses, dates, and after-parties, she struggled with the idea of attending such an important event without the one person who had always been there for her.

Instead of buying a new dress, she decided to create something that would allow her father to be part of the night with her. With the help of her aunt and many late evenings spent sewing carefully by hand, she began transforming those shirts into a prom dress.
Piece by piece, the fabric was reshaped and stitched together until the garment slowly took form.
