I think this outfit would probably only be suitable for a Mother of the Bride: it’s a little too dressy for most other occasions, but is glamorous and sophisticated enough to make you stand out on your daughter’s big day without stealing her thunder. The muted gold colour is very “weddingy”, while the soft sheen of the fabric making it just as suitable for evening as it is for daytime. It’s also surprisingly cheap at $150, leaving you spare cash for that all-important hat and shoes.
