One of these people is a Poshmark seller, who accidentally found an iconic designer wedding dress that was shown in theSex and the Citymovie. The best part about it is the price she paid for it – in comparison to the real value of a dress, she paid only cents. So, when she revealed her plans to sell this dress, a part of the internet exploded with excitement.

Like this woman, who accidentally found the Vera Wang dress fromSex and the Cityin one Goodwill selling only for $19
You know thrifting enthusiasts keep saying that you can find amazingly great finds in thrift stores? Well, while some people even after spending rather a lot of time looking for these great finds leave empty-handed, other folks have way more luck in it.
For instance, this TikTok user,@aileenscloset90– she managed to snatch a fascinating piece of clothing in one of Chicago’sGoodwillstores. Her find? Oh, it’s a designer wedding dress from the movieSex and the City.The best part about it – she paid only $19 for it. Yes, you read that right – $19.
In the TikTok video, the woman showed the dress itself and that it had a tag ofVera Wang, the famous American fashion designer who is best known for her sophisticatedweddingdress and haute couture collections.
This exact dress, which allegedly is worth around$7,500, is made of a white strapless bodice with layers of soft feathery-like fabric flowing onto the ground. The look made such an impression on the movie’s fans that some of them understood what kind of dress it was from the second they saw it in the video, even before the creator told them it was it.

Granted, these weren’t the only reactions people had to the video. Some people were just congratulating the woman for finding such an amazing piece for such a small price, while others were salty their thrift stores never carry such treasures. Some were also advising her to not reveal the price she paid if she wants to make more – the dress is worth thousands, so she could make at least a good chunk of that.
There was someone who even wondered why the woman didn’t even want to keep the dress for herself, as it’s not like you find something like this on every corner. To this, she answered that no diet could make her fit into the dress, which is a size 4.
Besides that, it turns out the video’s creator is also in the middle of a divorce and is in need of money for it. On average, inthe US, the total cost of a divorce can range from about$500to $11,000 and higher, which isn’t that cheap.
So, while maybe it would be nice to keep such a precious dress to herself as acollectible, in her case selling it just makes more sense. And it’s kind of symbolic – getting money for a divorce from selling a wedding dress – isn’t it?
Naturally, she bought the dress without any hesitation, and now she is planning to sell it for a higher price to make money to fund her divorce
