Flash me your Mums outfits!

My mom is airing towards this:

potentially with this instead of the full on hat:

and this for the night:

My stepmom has already purchased this:

with a red Jacket and red shoes.

My Mum is 58 and also quite trendy. She's got this:

And will be getting a huge hat and has some gorgeous platforms which match the dress.

My mum is having hers made.

It's a Grace Kelly/Augrey Hepburn inspired aubergine and grey number. It has some ruching across the tummy and some fabulous buttons on the back. It's so pretty and elegant. I love the fact that no one else might be wearing the same dress as her which is often a risk with the usual MOB places to shop at.

She's going to wear a fabulous hat, too. I'm so excited about seeing her in her outfit. I ❤️ my ma!

Timeless, eh, Trickers?

My mum's is too short for an up-do but I suppose it gives her more options hat wise. I love hats at weddings.

This is my mums, she will be 57. It looks like a dusky pink but its actually lilac with a darker purple:

Its a halterneck with a long skirt - skirt is ruched around the top and has a bit of a trail at the back. It has a jacket to match like this:

She is gettin rainbow shoes & handbag dyed to match and is going to wear a big hat. We ordered extra material so she can change the top to normal straps instead of a halterneck if she wants. Shop was very accomodating.

With pleasure!

Looks like we all have some very trendy Mums, mines 58 and I think she looks fab! But im biased. Oh and she wont be wearing black boots with it!! lol It was November when she treid this on!!

It a John Charles design

This is the model pic

I love the John Charles stuff - but my mother isn't so keen! Grr.

my mum keeps looking at this one.....do you mind me asking how much it was?

My mum is also trying to find something appropriate and lovely to wear- some lovely ideas and pictures! She also has been looking at John charles pieces.

I've just been informed by my mum that she is going outfit shopping tomorrow with her friend. I think she wanted an empire style dress in blcok colours.

I'm probably the same age as some of your Mum's and this is what I picked for my Daughters wedding:

Ooohhh good post, ive been shopping with my mum today and it was a complete disaster!!!!!!!

My mum is in the mint green next to me

Wow these outfits are stunning ! I want to go to a wedding now !

This is mine for my daughter's wedding:-

I'm a few years older than your Mum and I love it! Another John Charles outfit too!

All of you are going to have such glamourous (sp?) MOB's!!

Just wondered if anyone could give any suggestions for my mum please?! She is a bigger lady, bigger on the bottom than the top and not particularly fashionable (sorry mum!). I'm trying to come up with some nice fashionable outfits for her, get her to try something a little different to her normal, although obviously I don't want my mum to be uncomfy if she didn't like it!

(just getting MOB outift envy lol)

TIA (sorry for crashing thread)

Does anyone have any price ranges for the john charles ranges? Been trying to find out as there is a stockist near me for my mum.

Thank you ?

Umm good thread! do mothers of the bride have to match the colour scheme?

My mum is blonde and my colours are dark purple & yellow so not sure what she would wear....?

any ideas ladies?

How about something like these:

Sherrie, is that for me? If so thanku but my mum is quite trendy for her age, i dont think she would wear that, lol! no offence to neone

No it was for Kat44.

Ah ok, sorry...lol!

Sherrie - I think my mum would love that outfit can you tell me who it is by please? Ta x

Not at all ?

To buy new its around £450

But luckily I found my mums on Ebay but it was still £270. however it was in perfect condition.

Id say shop around and try ebay and Preloved
