Choosing an elegant wedding dress for the mother of the bride

If you are the mother of the bride, choosing a dress for the mother of the bride is also not an easy step in a wedding ceremony.

Choosing a color

First, decide on the color of the fabric that your dress will be made of. It is best not to repeat the color scheme with the bride's dress. This applies not only to the outfit of the mother of the bride, but in general to all the guests invited to the celebration. The colors black and red will not be appropriate for you either, although these colors can be combined in a color block.

Many women, no matter what their hair color, is in shades of blue or purple. After all, the palette of blue is very diverse: azure, blue, cornflower blue, indigo, lilac, purple, blue, aquamarine, lavender - the choice is simply luxurious. And the color is noble. With such a variety, you will definitely find your color, and you will look festive. The colors are green and yellow. Here, be more careful, it is better to choose the most calm ones from the palette of these colors. Fabric gold with black - this option also needs to be carefully considered so as not to look pompous. And even when you have already chosen a color, once again look at yourself "from the outside".

If you are a complete lady

Quite often, mothers of children, i.e. bride or groom are overweight women. But even here you can look elegant. If you want to hide the fullness, then the long dress is slightly fitted, it will help you with this, but this option is not suitable for everyone. You like to feel free and at the same time comfortable. And in a long dress, you feel somewhat constrained. In addition to the many hours of walking with the newlyweds, you will have to accept many congratulations, meet guests and dance.

No problem. You can see yourself elegant if the dress is even a little shorter than usual. But on top you will have to wear a cape made of chiffon fabric of the same color as the dress, covering the arms and going down almost to the edge of the dress.

Dresses with flared sleeves are also possible. Approach ruffles, knits, and body-hugging garments with care. You can refer to the Italian brand Marina Rinaldi... It is this brand that dresses overweight women, which they talk about in America - Big Beautiful Woman - "a big beautiful woman."

If you are a slim lady

There are many options in this case. Try a sleeveless, knee-length dress with a fitted one-piece silhouette. The neckline can be “boat”, “V-shaped”, oval, or, simply put, whichever suits you best (after all, you already know about this for sure). If you are close to your daughter or son, you seem to be a friend, you can also allow the option with the straps or the option with a deep neckline. If you feel more constrained in the latest options, try a neckline covered with chiffon, guipure or lace insert.

Your own dignity, confidence, and good relations with the people around you should help you feel comfortable. If you look good, you will feel better, and it depends a lot on how your children's wedding will go.
