Color of the
mother of the bride dresses is also an annoyance problem for moms. So many restrictions on the options and what should be subject to? Traditionally, avoiding dresses in the white, ivory, and champagne color family (that match the bride's wedding gown), black gowns (that can suggest mourning) and red gowns (or similarly "flashy" shades) is the standard. Though, we've seen moms in white
occasion dress who look tailored and elegant. We think black is classic, chic, and formal, and know that even red can be done with gorgeous good taste. The bottom line? Before you start shopping, talk to the bride. She may be very sensitive to the
prom dresses color issue or completely indifferent. If she expresses reservation, think about subdued-but-stately colors in the lavender, silver, burgundy, and blue families. Even so many restrictions, there are still many options of the mothers, why not ask for a color swatch from those
mother of the bride shops to make your best choice.
