Please help my mom

She needs a store with nice MOB dresses. She is younger and wants to wear something that is flattering but doesn't make her look to old.. without wearing a BM dress...
All that said it is very difficult to find her a dress. Can you offer some suggestions of designers or stores she can look at?

Re: Please help my mom

My daughter is getting married the same day and I just bought my dress last night. I went to Fantasia Bridal in Rocky Point. Actually my daughter got her dress there and just stopped to see what they had for BM's dresses...well one thing led to another and they were so helpful. I actually tried on the one on the back cover of the Jordan which I loved, but they kept the dresses coming. Needless to say I found one and bought it. I would highly recommend them! Happy shopping.

Hi,
I'm not a mom, but my mom & grandma &FH's aunt liked Sugarplums in Lynbrook. They had a wide variety.

My aunts also had luck in Totally you in Wantagh & Omnibus in Babylon.

My mom is having a custom made gown from Boutique Elle (in Woodbury Commons just west of 110 on Jericho). She's young too- they have amazing gowns. (I should warn, expensive amazing gowns)

Try Totally You in Bellmore. My MOH's mom got her MOB dress there...had found it somewhere else, but Totally You was MUCH less money for same dress! Delvery and fittings were great! Good luck to your mom!
