Mother of the Bride Gown

Hi-For any woman reading this who hasn't bought her dress for the wedding yet: If you are going to Marshall Fields to buy a dress-don't buy the long flowing black number with plum and lavender colored flowers that weave and spill across the front and back. I can't give too much away, but it is sleeveless with a cow-neck type deal. The hemline is in 3 tiers at a slight angle. Now, it's a good thing I don't write for clothing catalogues because that description doesn't do it justice. But the bottom line is, my lovely mother looks FABULOUS in it, but she is concerned that someone else will buy it. So just try to stay away from anything similar if you can so that my mother will calm down and wear that gorgeous dress!
