Royal Wedding Mother of the Bride Dress 2011: Blake and Company Blog

mother of the bride dressSo, as it turns out, the most famous wedding dress of the millennium, Kate Middleton’s Wedding Dress, has been designed by Sarah Burton at Alexander McQueen.   The wedding dress was selected because of its fine craftsmanship, beauty and because it is a product of Britain.

The dress itself featured a hand-engineered lace floral design.  Ivory satin material adorned the bodice.  The dress took several workers hours and hours to create.

However, while the wedding dress was spectacular, there is another outfit that caught our attention here at Blake and Company.  The outfit that caught our attention is the one worn by Carole Middleton, the mother of the bride.

The mother of the bride outfit was a beautiful sky.  Apparently, it turns out that the mother of the bride changed her mind at the last minute and ditched the mother of the bride outfit designed by designer Lindka Cierach.  It is rumored that after several months and several secret fittings, the mother of the bride, Carole Middleton, opted for a different mother of the bride outfit leaving the original mother of the bride designer stunned.

It is predicted that as the Royal Wedding was being broadcast, mother of the bride dress designers and wedding dress designers were busy making replicas.  It is highly likely that similarly styled designs will be featured in the months to come.

Beeswax, Lavender, Russet Brown Special Occasion Dresses are all the Rage this Season.

Special occasion dresses are all about color this season.  We all know honeysuckle is the official color of the year, but other colors are also hot this Spring.  For example, beeswax yellow #14-0941 is making a buzz!

Special occasion dress designers have the fashion world buzzing over beeswax.  Beeswax is a warm color that is great for special occasion dresses and mother of the bride dresses.  Beeswax goes especially well with medium skin tones.  Many Hispanic, Mediterranean and Middle Eastern skin tones are accentuated by a beeswax special occasion dress.

If lavender is not your cup of tea and yellow is none of your beeswax, then you may wish to check out russet brown #18-1235.  Russet brown special occasion dresses offer the neutral look that will make a woman stand out among the shades of yellow, pink and blue that seem to be dominating the special occasion dress and mother of the bride dress industry this season.
