Start your very own “something old” tradition.
There are three things most brides do with their wedding dress after their big day. 1) Be a fucking badass and barhop in it, 2) trash it in the best way possible, or (most likely) 3) Let it collect dust in the closet, never to be seen again.

But, there's now a way you can actually wear your dress whenever you damn please.
Gabrielle Bratton (Gabe for short), a 28-year-old San Francisco- and Raleigh-based jewelry designer, makes intricate custom jewelry by coating pieces of fabric from old wedding dresses in precious metal.
The pieces only use a small swatch of fabric, so you can totally still preserve the dress. Or, even better, plan ahead and save some scraps from dress alterations.
