Mother of the Bride Outfit

Sorry no idea about the area but have you tried monsoon or some other high street shop?

I don't know about the area either and not sure about hiring, but my mum is having the same dilemma. She saw a gorgeous Condici outfit online which turned out to be about £800! I told her to stop looking at mother of bride outfits from the bridal/occasion shops as she only ideally wants to spend about £100!

Depending on the sort of outfit your mum wants, they have a few in monsoon, some in Debenhams, Coast, House of Fraser, John Lewis. ALso I think it was Littlewoods catalogue that had some nice ones.

Hi,

what about trying a 'shopping day'. maybe the trafford centre? theres lots of different shops to try there

I'm taking my mum & grandma to Meadowhall on friday. i'm going to try to get a personal shopper to help. probably going to try all the big shops like debenhams, m&s, bhs.

My Mum ordered loads of stuff online to try on, you can get stuff in your price range and send back if it doesn't fit. But my mum didn't like the traditional mother of bride type outfits, she eneded up just getting a really nice dress with a matching bolero.

Why dont you try cheshire oaks?

I know Sense and Sensibility in Stockport do MOTB outfits - but echo everyone else they will be dead expensive so why not go to a nice department store and get a style advisor to help you - much more choice and better value for money. Coast is also amazing for smart tailored clothes.

Good luck!

Thanks - some good suggestions that I hadn't thought of. I'll take a look ?

BHS have a couple of nice outfits too
