Posh frock for Mother of the Bride

[bluebellation]

DD is getting married in the summer so I'm starting to browse dress ideas for me. I don't want the dress/jacket/hat combo, just a stunning dress, but I haven't seen anything that takes my fancy.

I'm 5'7", size 12, with a small waist, and don't suit anything frilly or fussy. If anyone can point me in the direction of any designers or independent shops I'd be really grateful- I've looked at Bombshell, Closet London, Nancy Mac.

TIA

Someone directed me to the Pretty Dress Company the other day as I’m looking for an informal wedding dress and there are some lovely dresses on there that would be good for mother of the bride. And not too £££

Look up Shibumi....

Thanks for both these recommendations , those Shibumi dresses are great - not too far from me either, so worth a look.

Look at their reversible cashmere dressing gowns! I got the website from mumsnet actually.

I have ordered a beautiful needle and thread dress for my sister’s upcoming wedding. I am 17yrs her senior and old enough to be MOTB!

Wolf and Badger have some amazing dresses... this one is utterly gorgeous www.wolfandbadger.com/uk/geometric-silk-dress/

Another vote for Shibumi! But get an appointment soon, they are very booked up already and most things are made to order.

Ooh more suggestions! Thanks, I'll check them out after lunch.
