The Art of Finding Contemporary Mother of the Bride Dresses

When planning a wedding, there are a million decisions to make, some simple and some complicated. Fortunately, the search for a mother of the bride dress with a contemporary yet classic look doesn't have to be one of the difficult choices.

As with most gown choice making, the most important factor in finding a great mother of the bride dress is comfort. Key an eye out for cuts that flatter the wearer's figure while accentuating positive areas. Before you make a final decision on that perfect dress for the mother of the bride, consider some of these very appropriate fashion forward models.

Hammered Shimmer Short Tier Dress

Mothers of the bride who are interested in combining a classic cut with some playful modern flair will simply love the Hammered Shimmer Short Tier Dress by David's Bridal. This charming pink number features a high neckline and shirt sleeves that just cover the shoulder. A removable matching flower provides an extra bit of interest near the neckline, drawing the eye upward.

This lovely gown's tiered style helps accentuate nearly any figure and provides a very chic touch of fashion. The bottom hem ends just at the knee, providing a modern yet conservative look for the happy mother of the bride. This dress is constructed with a blend of rayon, polyester and nylon and comes in pink only.

Beaded Chiffon Long Dress with Scarf

If the ceremony is a bit more on the formal side, the lovely Beaded Chiffon Long Dress with matching Scarf by David's Bridal can provide an elegant yet updated look. This gown is truly a stunner and flattering to most figure to boot. The bodice is encrusted with a sparkling beaded design, which works to draw the eye upward toward the high neckline accented by thin spaghetti straps.

At the raised waist line, the dress begins to flair out gracefully, hiding any trouble areas while accenting a natural hour glass figure and delivering a truly dramatic, upscale effect.  This flow gown extends fully to the floor and comes with a matching scarf that is perfect for keeping off drafts and adding a layer of interest. This dress is constructed of imported polyester and is available only in black.

Satin Jacquard Jacket Dress

For a modern yet endlessly stylish look, a great mother of the bride ensemble can include a tasteful matching jacket, as seen in the Satin Jacquard Jacket Dress from David's Bridal. This combination's ravishing tank dress has a modest neck line and wide shoulder straps. Its high waistline is accentuated by a brooch detail before the skirt extends just to the knee for a classic look.

The matching bolero jacket features a truly beautiful jacquard pattern throughout and seems to shimmer in any light. Its three quarter sleeves and collar-less design add a decidedly jaunty feel, making this gown perfect for a spring or summertime ceremony. This fabulous ensemble is made of satin throughout and is available in a number of color options.

Brocade and Metallic Chiffon Two Piece

Yet another option for prospective mothers of the bride is the classic two piece gown. The lovely Brocade and Metallic Chiffon Two Piece combination by David's Bridal provides a truly striking example of a well done look. The gown's brocade top provides lots of head turning interest with its delicate patterned fabric and sleeveless V-neck cut while 3 rosettes at the high empire silhouette waistline provide a dramatic transition to the skirt.

Crafted from metallic chiffon, the gown's flowing skirt provides lots of coverage, with a bottom hem that extends to the floor. This fantastic combination also comes with matching scarf for that finishing touch.

Metallic Chiffon Dress with Bolero Jacket

Finally the Metallic Chiffon Dress with Bolero Jacket is a well crafted ensemble that combines most of the previously considered looks into one stunning gown. This lovely dress features a mock two piece look that draws the gaze upward with a lightly beaded surplus neckline and a ruched area below the bust that provides plenty of figure flattering coverage before ceding to the natural waistline.

The gown's simple and elegant skirt provides a lovely and modern counterpoint to the bodice and flows without complication to the floor. The three quarter sleeve bolero jacket finishes the look and can easily be left off depending on the weather or mood. This lovely dress and jacket is made of chiffon and available in pewter or champagne.

A great mother of the bride dress should let your beaming matriarch stand out among the rest of the wedding party while echoing your overall theme with basic elements and color. Take these stunning models as your inspiration to find a beautiful dress that will let the mother of the bride look her very best on her daughter's special day.
