Wedding Style: The Mother of The Bride

Wedding Style: The Mother of The Bride

 

There is no doubt that it is the bride who feels the most pressure to look her best on her wedding day, but lest we forget the mother of the bride, the third most important person on the big day! She plays a vitally important role, meeting and greeting, and taking the plaudits for bringing up such a fine human being, so it only figures that mother of the bride dresses and coat should be given the upmost importance! The mother-of-the-bride aesthetic needs to convey timeless style, taste, and a degree of authority. all of which our coats and dresses deliver with aplomb...

Long Coats

Coats tend to be the real show stoppers at weddings and we have a number of styles that will be perfect for mothers of the bride or groom. This season, a stunning option for mothers-of-the-bride or indeed groom, is our perennial Belgravia coat which comes in an array of different colours and patterns, all crafted from lightweight silk organza

The Westminster coat is another beautiful option that has been crafted in a number of striking different crease-resist linen iterations. This flattering, slim-line coat features a grown-on collar,  helping to create a sleek neckline. Contrast silk piping and a detailed hem, alongside fabric-covered button detailing make the Westminster style perfect for summer weddings.

Similarly, the Eton coat is one of our favourite smart summer silhouettes, as it features a very flattering cut. These have also been crafted using crease resist linen for a textural finish that stands up to the rigours of an all-day event. Mother-of-the-bride outfits need to look as polished on the dance floor as they did in the church or registry!

Finally, for those ladies who like to make a statement, then our Carnaby coats are just the ticket. This season, we have created some confidently feminine full-length Carnaby styles in sumptuous silk, replete with bold and dynamic patterns. These coats come with a high neckline and the majority of this season's styles have been cut in a luscious silk satin which really enables the colours and patterns to pop.

Dresses

This season, we have a beautiful array of day-to-evening styles cut in a variety of luxury fabrics such as Shantung silk, silk chiffon, silk georgette, and silk douppion, all of which have been utilised in a variety of silhouettes. Playful styles such as our Serena circle dress are ideal for summer weddings since they are cut from a lightweight barely-there silk georgette and boast a graceful movement in the skirt.

Our Josephine, Araminta, and Bella dresses are the perfect reception to party style, as the silk shantung fabric is sophisticated for daywear yet has plenty of glamour for the party in the evening. Both styles are cut in a flattering figure, creating a tall, svelte shape, and come in a number of colours.

At Favourbrook, we understand how important it is to look and feel your very best on the most important days of your life, so please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or would like advice. The wedding days of one's children are truly momentous occasions in life and we want to ensure that the pride you feel for your daughter or son is only heightened by the confidence you feel in yourself!
