Contempory Styling, for mother of the bride, I say have your cake and eat it!

Hi there ,

since we are now fully into the Wedding season, I couldn't resist show casing this exquisite suit and hat from Fiorisimo in charcoal, I love this strong elegant look, which quite clearly illustrates that classic wedding styling can be given a contemporary twist, the hat is just drop dead gorgeous!

The mother of the bride or groom needs to styled in such a way, so as not to upstage the mother of the bride whilst still reflecting the the importance of her role on the day, it can be a difficult balance to strike. Mother of the bride and groom wedding attire has traditionally been pretty uninspiring,but thankfully retailers are waking up to the fact that just because it is our son or daughter big day, doesn't mean that the way we dress for the big occasion can't reflect our own personal style and have an impact that doesn't make you want to reach for a cough candy sweet, tartan rug and thermos flask.

A personal Style consultant can broaden your repertoire of what you consider to be suitable mother of the bride or groom attire, helping you create a unique and flattering look. Discuss your individual requirements and what image you hope to project on your son or daughters big day, taking into consideration key factors such as the theme or look of the whole bridal party and most significantly the bride. You might be pleasantly surprised about what you end up paying for your outfit, when you enlist a Style Consultant who can use their expertise to Style you for the Special day using retailers that are not necessarily classed as bridal out lets. As well as this, there is the added bonus that the a Style Consultant is trained to work with your unique body shape and colouring and to source clothing that works with your body shape to flatter it, you could come away with a look that creates the effect that you have dropped a dress size!
