The dress was handmade by her mother Libby - with silk (from India), and taffeta. The taffeta was actually purchased by her mom back when Emily was 13 years old. Here is what happened.... they once attended an estate sale when Emily was 13, and her mother noticed that they had some wonderful taffeta for sale. She asked her daughter "What would I do with all this beautiful taffeta?" Emily responded, "You can use it one day to make my wedding dress".
