Tall MOB outfits

Trouble_gb, 9 October, 2012 at 10:28 Posted on Planning 0 7

HI Ladies,

I need some advice / help!

My mother is probably about 5.11 and probably a size 16/18 and she is really getting stressed out with having to find an outfit for the wedding.

Does anyone have any good recommendations of places I can take her around the Bucks / Berks / London area to have a look at outfits?

Thanks in advance

    Pretty sure there is a long tall sally in Reading (near Nationwide, on the way to the Oracle from the station IIRC) - they go up to that size

    HI,

    Thanks and we are very aware of long tall sally but they don't really have any Mother of the Bride type outfits.

    I think I might have found something though so fingers crossed!

    My mum is 5ft 9 - she had a jaques vert dress, she is a size 12 though, not sure what

    sizes they do but I don't think a size 16 is particularly big?

    Good luck with finding something.

    PS always good to look online as they don't always have everything in the shop!

    My mum is 5'8 and we went on a day shopping trip to Bath. Amazing place, they have looooooads of little boutique shops.

    My mum is 5'9 and size 14/16 and got hers from Jacques Vert at Debenhams. Try the personal shopper service either there or somewhere like John Lewis, I'm sure they'll find something!

    Gradually adding more stock at the mo so keep an eye on it once you have a colour in mind.
