A simple guide to dressing the mother of the bride

Although a Bride's Wedding Day is the most important day of her life, it would not be possible without the help and guidance of her Mother who plays an enormous role in the planning and organising of the Big Day.

We at CONDICI feel that the Mother is just as important as the Bride and wants to look her best in every way.

Our collection is specifically designed for the Mother of the Bride - it incorporates a stunning collection of two-piece outfits in wonderful colours that every Mother of the Bride would be proud to wear.

We also supply hats to match our collection, which gives a total look and alleviates the problems of going out to find a matching hat.

The important issues to bear in mind when selecting a Mother of the Bride outfit are as follows:

  1. The colour should not clash with the bride's dress.
  2. Try to consult with the Bridegrooms' Mother so that colours complement each other.
  3. Always wear a matching hat - this creates uniformity and does not detract from the bride.
  4. Select something that is comfortable - not too tight - as you will be wearing it for many hours, also make sure it does not crease too much, there is nothing worse than a creased, dishevelled Mother of the Bride, greeting her guests at the reception.
  5. It is very important to make sure the colour suits you - don't be swayed by anyone else - you have to be happy with the final look.
  6. Choose comfortable shoes and matching bag. Wear the shoes around the house for a few hours before the wedding - there is nothing worse than sore feet, and you will be standing on them for some considerable time. Also make sure your tights are not too dark and complement the outfit as well as your legs.
  7. Complement your outfit with simple jewellery and not too heavy make-up - you don't want to look like a clown. It is best to try your make-up out before the big day, in order to obtain the correct look and colours.

To generally sum up, we at Condici feel and know that the look should be elegant, not 'over the top', and slightly understated - not to deter from the beauty of the Bride.

Bearing all the above in mind have a GREAT DAY!
