More to come on my daughter’s wedding (my camera r More to come on my daughter’s wedding (my camera roll is very full!) but this is what I wore as mother of the bride. I felt incredible in all afternoon and evening. 

I bought this dress nine months before the wedding having tried it on in black 12 months before the wedding. I immediately fell in love and didn’t bother trying anything else. The underneath tube dress layer is jersey so was super comfortable and I didn’t need shape wear. It is the silk organza overlay that makes this dress. This colour is no longer available but it is in black and plum.
