How Sweet Is This New (And Local!) Dress Line?

Here at R29, we find ourselves rocking the same trends as our super stylish coworkers on the reg — great minds, right? While we love that we're all on the same sartorial page, the same can't be said about showing up to a wedding or birthday party wearing — gasp! — the exact same dress as your ex's new love. Enter Cotton Candy Couture, the brand new, yet-to-launch fashion company from Chicago's own style queen Jenna Zielbauer.

The line will create unique, limited-edition cocktail dresses for the Windy City's stylish set, to keep you from that embarrassing "twinsies!' moment. We're also loving their "Original Edit" service, where the designer herself will re-work your old frocks into a fabulously new design. Follow Cotton Candy Couture's Facebook page to be the first to know when you can get your hands on the oh-so-sweet inaugural fall '12 collection, and start filling up your social calendar now.
