New Obsession: Vintage Gowns

I have to admit I’ve been watching every episode of “The Bachelorette”! My fiance refuses to talk to me until 2 hours have passed after the show because I bombard him with questions like “how come you can’t be as romantic?” haha!
But in addition to watching it for the romance, I love seeing what Jillian’s going to wear every episode. I absolutely love the white gown that she wore on the opening episode but along with other gals, found it sad that it was vintage when it really could have been the perfect wedding gown. Says Jillian:

“First things first! I searched long and hard for the perfect gown. The one we settled on was vintage, and had been worn on the red carpet. (That’s quite a big history for one little dress!) I felt incredible in it, but it did need a lot of work to help it fit me like it did. The only sad part is, the driveway outside the house is sprayed down before shooting to give it a nice glimmer, so the bottom of my gown got wet while I was waiting for all the men to arrive.”

So it’s really gotten me to wonder just what kind of treasures are out there in the realm of vintage fashion? I found this fantastic website theFrock.com and spent the half hour perusing the many gowns that I know would be a smash if tailored or altered for the  modern bride. Here are a couple ones that I particularly fancied!
