Here are places to find a recycled gown, and where to recycle your own (I've now separated out the specialized vintage retail sites). Don't forget EBay, the Salvation Army, Goodwill, ValueVillage and your local thrift-shop-for-charity. We have also listed a Quebec company, Ouijelevoeux, that combines multiple gowns to sew new ones.
If you're in the UK (or visiting), you can shop the great OxfamBridal shops.
Bridesagainstbreastcancer
bridgalgown.org NY, NY (samples/overstocks)
Recycleagown List your gown online, registration fee (New Brunswick, CA) [seems to be defunct at present]
Ouijelevoeux Buys your gown and recrafts it (Quebec)
Pre-owned wedding dresses, from $250 specials to Vera Wang. US and Canada (and "other"). You can sell here, too.
VintageIndie A shop on Etsy
A new idea (which came to us in the comments):
WeddingRecycling.com, started by Kyle. Her slogan is "Pass it Forward". They've just started, so jump in and post a few things and get them off the ground.

Hello,
Thanks for posting Vintage Indie, but we aren't a shop rather an online magazine and the link is to our Indie Wedding Guide. Just wanted to be sure no one was confused.
Thanks for the clearup, Vintage Indie! Go visit their guide..
Mary, just wanted to let you know about my new site I have recently developed. Brides, event planner(s), etc can buy and sell things to each other for free. www.weddingrecycling.com
Love the GREEN blogs/comments you have! I agree GREEN weddings are the way to go!
