Wedding Gowns Survey.
They say one woman’s trash is another woman’s treasure. This is certainly the case in today’s economic times. Whilst some would sneer at wearing someone else’s cast offs, there are others that are happy to search for hours to find a designer bargain or that one off accessory or pair of shoes. Shopping or selling for preloved clothing on line is a great way of mixing up your wardrobe without sacrificing your precious time going out to the stores.
Once Worn Visions, surveyed over 1000 woman in the age group 19 to 35 years.
Our subject was Wedding Gowns.
We wanted to find out how woman felt about the idea of buying and selling a preloved or second hand wedding gown. We surveyed a mixture of woman some were already married, some were engaged to be married and others had no immediate plans to marry.
These were the results.
83% of all woman surveyed thought that the cost of a new gown was far too expensive, but felt pressured by friends and family to be extravagant when purchasing a wedding gown.
89% Surveyed, said that they would definitely consider buying a second hand or pre loved gown. (as long as it was in good condition).
48% of these women although happy to purchase second hand would not tell anyone that they had bought a preloved gown.
95% of woman surveyed that were marrying for the second time said that they would definitely buy a second hand or pre loved gown.
87% of these woman said that they had over spent on their first wedding gown and had never looked at it since their wedding and wished that they had tried to sell it soon after their first wedding..
92% of woman surveyed said that they would be happy to sell their wedding gown to recoup some of the cost of buying the gown.
As the economy slides deeper into recession woman are becoming more budget conscious and are more open minded about purchasing preloved clothing.
Survey conducted April 2009 Melbourne Australia.
