Start by taking the dress code and color palette of the wedding into consideration—these are important guidelines to keep in mind in order to merge your personal style with the vision of the day. (After all, you want to feel and look like you.) If you always feel your best in a simple sheath, by all means, find the most beautiful version you can. Do you gravitate more to dramatic silhouettes and ball gown-type numbers? As long as you pick one that stays true to the vibe of the event, there’s no reason you can’t go all out. Unlike traditional bridesmaids dresses, a mother of the bride gown is one of one on the big day, so there’s room to stand out. It’s a lovely opportunity to play with interesting fabrics, unique shades, and beautiful patterns.
In the end, the mother of the bride just wants to feel beautiful celebrating her daughter—and, of course, look fabulous in photos. Shop 28 dresses that are ideal for all climates, seasons, and venues, from breezy beachside nuptials to full-on black tie affairs.
