Charcoal sequin-bodice gown, lost in Roswell downtown
Description
Yesterday around 3pm after a charity gala near the Roswell Convention Center on Main Street, I realized my charcoal Adrianna Papell evening gown was missing. It's a size 6, with a sequined bodice and a flowing chiffon skirt. There's a detachable crystal belt at the waist and a tiny snag in the hem; inside the lining my initials 'P.K.' are stitched. The gown has sentimental value—it was a gift from my sister, who passed away, and I really need it back. If you found it, drop me a message here so we can arrange a safe return; I’d be endlessly grateful. If you found it anywhere in the Roswell or Carlsbad area, please message me here.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
