Woman normalising stomas picks wedding dress

"If I didn't have my stoma bag, what wedding dress would I pick?"

Poppy Williams, 27, from Cardiff, is documenting her experience of living with a stoma bag – including shopping for a wedding dress.

She wants to "normalise it and break the stigma", she said.

Poppy, who initially thought her "life was over" when emergency surgery in December 2021 led to her needing a stoma.

"Some silky materials really do outline the stoma bag," she said.

"On your wedding day you just want to feel you best and I kind of didn't want to have to worry about that."
