Watching I found the gown - Vows wedding store, discounted dresses - and got me thinking did Pippa ever sell her dress.

It's a dress for someone tall and thin! She's 5ft 9, wore 5in heels and it's a size 8.

Pistachios & cream

A quick google of her wedding shows that dress with those exact modifications was her wedding dress. I think if i had a designer dress I'd probably try to re sell it again.

I think it could be difficult to sell that particular dress as it would have been widely photographed and is quite recognisable. While I'm sure lots of brides might not object to wearing a second hand dress they may not want everyone to know who wore it before and be able to compare how the two brides looked in it and things like that.

I think that might be the problem unfortunately. A lot of girls probably liked her dress a lot (I know I did) but there's few who will look like she did (figure wise) in it.

Wow! That site is an eye opener.
Some people pay more for a wedding dress than I spend on clothes in my whole life!

I know! Mad.

Sure her dress was about €5k I think! I'd say she'd prefer if she had that in her pocket now.

She wasn't featured on "Say Yes to the Dress"

There was a documentary about the lead up to their wedding and it showed her travelling to NY to get her dress
