Mother of groom dress

Anonymous
June wedding, not black tie but I want a long sleeveless dress.
Here’s the thing - I’m a 10/12 on top and a 4 on the bottom. Dresses that fit are difficult to find. It would be a lot to tailor a 12 bottom to fit a four.
Where can I find something that will fit?
Have this on order to try in a 4, hoping it has enough room up top.

That's a very sexy mama.
Straighter looser tunics are easier but doesn't sound like your style.

Literally no one cares what the mother of the groom wears. It's the bride and her family's day.

OP, I LOVE the dress you have posted here. I hope it works!

What is the mother of the bride wearing?

Unfortunately, PP is correct. You know what they say about the mother of the groom. Wear beige and keep quiet.

The MOB is wearing a long sleeveless dress too, blue multipattern. The Bride said anything you're comfortable with, except black - which is the bridesmaids color.

I feel like this Clay color (above dress I linked) is kinda beige?

You are a disturbed person.

I love the dress OP. It's sexy, yet traditional, with coverage.

I think that is a harsh blanket statement. Every wedding and circumstance is different. Some of my friends/relatives were recently MOGs and they looked fabulous.

I think the dress the OP is considering looks very very nice!

Great dress; but I think you should plan to visit the tailor anyway with such different sizing on top/bottom.

I love some of these!
I decided to go without sequins as I’ll probably have my one year old grandson on my lap.

I received the clay colored dress and it completely washed me out. Also, it was very heavy.
Back to the drawing board I think.

I did purchase this one from Amazon. Will see how it fits/looks

I like the blue dress PP posted. Your Amazon is very casual- maybe for a different event?
