My daughter is getting married soon. Is it okay for the mother of the bride to wear trousers?
As you know, just about anything goes these days, but I have to say, weddings are very special one-off occasions that everyone, including guests, should make an effort for.
It's the brideand groom's big day and you want to do everything you can to make it special for them.
Does your daughter mind if you wear trousers? This is probably one of the first questions. And if she doesn't mind, then go for it. Dress trousers and smart trouser suits can look fab.
With dress trousers, consider a fab top to go with them - sheer or luxury fabrics like silk, satin, chiffon or organza, embellishments like beading or jewels, patterns, colour and/or texture. Something special, less run-of-the-mill.
Consider coloured trousers rather than black. Tie the colour in with the top. Be sure the colour enhances your looks.
With a trouser suit, think about your accessories and what top you will wear underneath. A top in a complementary or contrasting colour in a satin or silk will look fab.
Heels will be important to give you the dressy look - a nice strappy heel if your feet can handle them.
