[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree the third one looks too bridesmaidy -- I'm not sure why, it's something about the bodice.

Is the wedding in the DMV area, or further south?

If she's a rower, she probably has great arms, and is fit, right?  Would she do something like this?

Here's another one-shouldered one that is really pretty:

Or this one which would need a wrap but I think it wouldn't be matronly:

There are some really pretty strapless, but I'm assuming that's a no-go?

This one could be pretty:

I love this one, and it's a fall color, but most women would probably think too bright for MOB:

I guess the asymetrical is really in this year, as I'm seeing a lot more really pretty one-shouldered dress, but she'd have to be pretty comfortable showing off that shoulder.  [/quote]

Np - these from Neiman’s seem better to me than the ones op posted. They are age appropriate and look like something a MOB would wear - tasteful and elegant. The ones op posted seem like something her mom would wear to a black tie benefit rather than to her daughter’s wedding. JMO.[/quote]
