Rich Women's Dresses and What Happens to Them
An industry insider in Newport discusses the cost and fate of high end gowns. He notes annual spending of ten thousand dollars per woman for gowns, with some seven to twelve thousand, and five thousand as a lower serious threshold. A $600 minimum for a truly first class gown is cited, with elaborate trimming taking a week to complete by skilled workers. Many gowns are used briefly, then given away or sold, and some wealthy clients burn old dresses to prevent reuse.
