Mom of bride dresses

It used to be that mother of the bride outfits were just dreadful. Frumpy, unflattering, and nothing that any woman with a sense of style would ever want to wear, the best thing about the old-fashioned ensembles was that they did non contend with the bride. These days, choices have broadened, and there is no reason why the bride’ mom cannot look chic as well as appropriate. These are some of the best trends for non-matronly mother of the bride outfits.

First of all, who says that a mother of the bride outfit has to be a dress? Unless the wedding is black tie, a very dressy pants ensemble could be a great option for the bride’s mom. For a winter wedding, wide leg silk velvet pants would be fabulous. They can be mated with a beaded shell or even a strapless silk satin top for a fabulous effect that is definitely wedding-appropriate. A coordinating velvet bolero jacket will be a great addition to the outfit to ward off a chill (and to conceal upper arms for moms who don’t like to show theirs off). Crystal wedding jewellery and jeweled satin place will complete the look.
