It depends on the gown. For a vintage gown by a respected designer in good condition or for a gown with a lot of detail it would be a very reasonable price.
For me personally, I bought a dress off the rack for about $80 to get married in so obviously I wouldn't spend 1k on a wedding dress but for someone who wants a special day and a special dress then 1k might be reasonable.
More than reasonable if its a couture design. I remember being horrified when I went looking for a wedding dress years ago at a very exclusive place in Perth and the one I'd seen in a magazine and fallen in love with was a mere $12,000!!! Hmmm. Perhaps not that one for me then . . . If I sold the one I did end up buying for $1,000 whoever got it would have a bargain.
