Mother of the Bride dress

Can anyone suggest places to go for Mother of the bride dresses? I've been to Sears, Macy's, Penney's, Lord & taylor....they either look like bridesmaid dresses or old lady dresses!!

Please help a fellow 08'er

Estelle's dressy dresses in Farmingdale is a good place (it's on 110 past Adventure Land) and they have great prices too.

Re: Mother of the Bride dress

My mom bought her dress from the bridal boutique in Macy's in Manhasset. She wore a Jade by Jasmine dress - that line seems to not look like frumpy MOB dresses. My mom was adamant that she was not going to wear something that looked like it was made for my grandmother.

Re: Mother of the Bride dress

This was tough one b/c my mom is super picky w/ the type of fabric...but we finally found one at Lord and Taylor's...only thing was it was cut on a bias so the zipper in the back puckered...but our seamstress was able to fix that
