I was thinking while reading this post that my cousin who is a little younger than I am has her mother's wedding dress from the early 1940s that she also wore at her wedding. She has a very pretty dress form that the dress is on, in her upstairs foyer, and whenever you go up or down in her house, there it is. It is made of cream satin, not much fabric, but floor length with train. Very simple and very beautiful and it is being "honored". My cousin knows her daughter wouldn't be interested in it so it is just there for memories and to be pretty.
