If anything, the mother of the groom must complement the mother bride gown’s skirt and sleeve length, not necessarily the color. But both must hang on the thread of the brides’ opinion.
Mothers of the bride have a whole gamut of styles to choose from. As in all fashion, one must wear what mother bride gown looks best.
For the color of the mother bride gown, the mother of the bride must not wear anything white or any shade thereof.
For all the obvious reasons, white, cream, ivory and all such colors are left to the bride. But then again, black is a fashion faux pas, although its popularity has looked up in recent times.
As to the price, the mother may splurge in the best her wallet allows, if only for being next in line in regards to the guests’ point of view. |
