Cecilia Lisbon Dress Novels & Stories

Celeste had always been there for us, not just as a friend but as family, and seeing her with Lily made me feel like we weren’t alone in this. “Okay, this one,” Celeste said, holding up a pale pink dress with a tulle skirt and tiny rhinestone embellishments. “This screams princess, don’t you think?” Lily’s eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands. “Yes!

Shiela, as expected, went for the elegant, sophisticated styles. Some so simple they bordered on boring. Lilian? The total opposite.

The dress was completely white, wide under the waist, with long sleeves and a high collar. There was also a veil over the mannequin, with some rose ornaments. "It's very beautiful..." Dylan unconsciously let his opinion slip.

“It’s ready, Cecilia. Just like you imagined.” Cecilia’s breath caught in her throat as she looked at the dress.
