MOTHER OF THE BRIDE :


There’s something about a wedding that
can bring out the best in, what we might
politely call, the more mature woman. We’
re thinking in particular here about that
most individual character, the mother of
the bride and in particular what she wears
on what, let’s face it, is supposed to be
her daughter’s special day. It usually takes
a pretty posh sort of occasion, because
the outfits that we’re talking about here
are rather expensive, but sometimes the
mother can outshine the bride in the
fashion stakes with a matching ensemble
of suit, hat and shoes and this section of
Birgitcompton.com is a tribute to the
elegantly turned out Mother of the
Bride.
When we’re not collecting photographs
of the well dressed mother of the bride,
then we’re collecting her clothes and the
highlights of our collection are
undoubtedly by the masters of this
specialised line in formal attire, Condici.
Hideously expensive new, but often
picked up for a snip from the sort of
woman who just can’t be seen at two
wedding in the same outfit and somehow
never makes it to Ascot either. At this
point we step in and another stylish
addition to our collection is procured.
