Mother of the groom

MOTHER OF THE GROOM

Advertisement

I am a 64 year young mother of 4 children and sadly lacking in the trim, taut and terrific areas. My eldest son is getting married in 6 months in the Cook Islands and I am in desperate need of some advice as to how to present myself in the best light to do them proud on their special day.

Normally I wear very tailored clothes, and am not noted for my casual wardrobe.

As the wedding is to take place at sunset on the beach, the occasion calls for something soft and feminine.

I would be forever grateful if you could provide me with some appropriate ideas.

Dear Margot,

Firstly, congratulations on your son’s engagement and what a fantastic venue for a wedding!

A number of different labels would be worth checking out. Obviously, Anthea Crawford (1800 620 658) and Carla Zampatti (02 9264 8244) are fantastic, as is Stiches (03 9429 6599). Carla Zampatti has a beautiful range of silk satin peices in a number of different styles of tops and jackets that might be appropriate.

If you were looking for a softer, floatier silhouette, Maggie Shepherd (02 9261 1936) does beautiful colour palettes for women and suits all ages and sizes. Nicola Waite (02 9212 2770) is another label that might have something appropriate.

Best of luck on the day,

The AWW Fashion Team
