Search Rules
- First of all, you should think about practicality. But not at the expense of attractive appearance, of course.
- Try to provide for the dress to sit quite freely, not hamper the movement, provide ventilation. In other words, the fabric should choose light and breathable. A wedding for mom is not just a congratulation of a child and posing in front of cameras. It is mothers who have to run everywhere, take a direct part in the registry office, at a wedding, attend a banquet, and so on. Therefore, the outfit should allow you to move a lot, without causing discomfort.
- In addition, it is important to choose the right shoes. It should be combined stylistically, be comfortable and, if necessary, easy to take off and dress.
- If you are planning a thematic wedding, designed in a certain style, then the mother needs to buy a dress as well. For example, the marine theme of the celebration indicates the need to choose a turquoise, blue or sea blue outfit.
- Etiquette tells us that the corset is inappropriate in this case. As well as candid cutouts, open shoulders and deep cleavage. Even if mom looks better than some brides, restraint should still be present.
- Think about what mom likes to walk in everyday life. If her favorite clothes are skirts and dresses, then it is not recommended to wear her pantsuit on her wedding day. Although it’s beautiful, it’s unusual for mom. She has a difficult day ahead, so let her put on what she likes to go.
With a competent approach to solving this issue, you will not only make your mother the most beautiful at a wedding, but also give her clothes that will evoke the most vivid, pleasant emotions for many years after your marriage.

Styles
It is no secret that every woman has certain nuances and features of the figure. Therefore, it is impossible to choose an outfit focusing solely on pictures on the Internet. Everything should be done individually.
For full
Full mothers should not wear hoodie dresses. They will add even more pounds, plus this is clearly not a wedding option. At the same time, tight models or narrow corsets are also not the best choice for a wedding of children. Find a specific middle ground.
Empire
Empire allows you to perfectly hide the flaws of the figure. If the bodice is tight, and the waist is too high, this will hide a small tummy. As a result, mommy will become the most beautiful, charming and feminine.
In greek style
Dresses in the Greek style are designed to stretch the figure, make the legs longer, close the tummy, hide the wide hips. If the waist is made too high, the image will become mysterious. The belt under the chest will allow you to emphasize the neckline, and due to the soft folds of the movement will be confident and free.
Case
Sheath dresses are also great for weddings. Although they have a simple cut, you can complement it with bright colors or choose a lace option. And if you also provide interesting accessories, the result will amaze you and everyone around you. Of course, in a good sense of the word.
At the same time, some women manage to maintain their waist. This must be used. For this, fitted models of dresses with a soft belt and a skirt embroidered from below are suitable. Falling folds should be vertical.
If a woman has a beautiful bust, you won’t have to use any tricks. Choose a modest but sophisticated neckline. Then the image will be excellent.
A-line
A-line is suitable for full and thin mothers. He will emphasize the merits, hide the flaws.Just remember - the longer the dress is, the more slim the figure will appear. In this case, the minimum length should be up to the knees, and even better - a little lower. If the legs are far from perfect, then choose a dress on the floor. They mask the legs, but emphasize the femininity of the image.
Fabric selection
In summer and late spring, choose outfits from satin, silk or chiffon. These light flowing fabrics will allow the body to breathe and also look beneficial in the sun. In addition, you can combine several types of fabrics in one model.
If the street is autumn or even winter, then knitwear, brocade or taffeta will be an excellent solution. It is imperative that the fabric does not crumple. After all, mom has to spend all day on her feet, sit down, get up, run back and forth. She is unlikely to like it if, after leaving the wedding car, the dress is wrinkled. This can ruin the rest of the day. You certainly do not want your mom to be upset and upset.
Choose interesting accessories for your mother’s dress. For example, you can use the advantages of a jacket, scarf, stole, bolero, hats or jacket. Accessories can be both similar colors with an outfit, and contrasting. Layering will hide the flaws of the figure.
In fact, the outfit should be simple, but attractive. From the point of view of practicality and the creation of the necessary image, trouser suits are ideal. Unfortunately, they are not able to emphasize femininity.
Length
The mother of the groom should be the embodiment of modesty, restraint and at the same time femininity. It largely depends on the length of the dress.
Prefer the classic length - just below the knees or to the middle of the calf muscles. If mom loves long dresses, then don’t be afraid to dress her in ankles.
But models on the floor, and even more so with a train, should be postponed for some other event if the holiday is planned to be cheerful and active. After all, then you can’t call the clothes comfortable, you have to constantly hold the fabric in your hands, make sure that the train does not get dirty. Moreover, a long dress will simply interfere underfoot. Staying on such a busy day when you need to have time to do a lot of things is not so difficult.
Some will think that in this case it is better to give preference to mini dresses. No. This is an erroneous opinion. For a witness or bridesmaids, this length will be even more or less appropriate, but not for mom, who should look solid and restrained.
Color
In fact, the color of the dress of the mother of the groom can be absolutely anything. However, there are certain exceptions.
For example, a white dress is associated with a bride. It is highly desirable that she be in such a dress. Black is the color of mourning, according to tradition. A wedding is clearly a joyful event in the life of every mother, so they will not wear a dark outfit for the marriage of their son.
Not necessarily, but it is advisable to avoid too bright colors, such as light green, red, lemon and orange. This can distract attention from the main actors of the wedding.
But the muffled elements will be remembered, especially if the mother’s outfit repeats the groom’s outfit.
Plus, do not forget about another rule - the mothers of the bride and groom should choose outfits of different colors. It is better to dress the mother of the bride in a lilac, beige, cream dress, or any other pastel shade.
Mother of the groom is recommended to wear pastel light colors, and in the evening wear something close to brown. Good examples are the color of champagne, ivory. They can come to the registry office. And already directly during the party it is completely allowed to change into a lilac, golden, blue or turquoise dress.
With the help of clothes, you can and should hide the flaws characteristic of the age of the mother, but at the same time focus on the merits. For example, if she has full hands, sleeves will become an important element of the dress.
Of course, thinking about buying an evening dress for the groom's mom is necessary in advance. Do not forget, before the wedding, she will be busy no less than the bride and groom, and maybe even more. Therefore, she simply will not find the time to pick up a really good outfit. You don’t want your beloved mother (or future mother-in-law) to wear the first dress that came to hand ?!
Make this day perfect. For this, of course, you will have to try. But it's worth it. Nothing will decorate your holiday like a happy and contented mother.
Great options. Now many do not bother with the color of the outfit. The acquaintance was in a white dress and almost completely merged with the bride. I think this is still bad form.
It seems interesting to me when the mother-in-law and mother-in-law put on similar dresses. It looks very harmonious.
