Mother-of-the-Bride Dresses

Dress Ideas for Real Mothers-of-the-Bride

We found three mothers-of-the-bride who all had ideas—and requirements—for what they wanted to wear to their daughter's wedding but didn't know where to start. So we found them some great options, and invited them to our offices to give them a try.

Classic. Elegant. Cocktail length. And sleeves, too, please. That was the direction we got from Linda. Her daughter liked the idea of her mom in a "vintage" look—and we clearly agree. This periwinkle ensemble is flirty and whimsical.

Perwinkle silk shantung wrap blouse and matching flared skirt, $275, Aria, ariadress.com; pearl necklace, Slane & Slane; hand-carved, hand-painted Lucite flower brooch, Alexis Bittar; chartreuse clutch with chiffon rosettes, Inge Christopher; Sisi sandals, $285, Claudia Ciuti.
