It has been generally assumed, since the work of von Karman and Howarth in 1938, that free decay of fully-developed turbulence is self-similar. We present here a simple phenomenological model of the decay of 3D incompressible turbulence, which predicts breakdown of self-similarity for low-wavenumber spectral exponents $n$ in the range $n_c
