Repost: HELP PLEASE - BM dress issue

My wedding is in 2 weeks and my BM just got her dress today. (The store's fault, not hers)

Since then, I sent out a wedding invitation to my BMs mother and she accepted it. The problem is, my BM is from a very religious home and needs a something to cover her arms and chest (the dress is strapless) She is very very uncomfortable wearing this dress in front of her mother.

Does anyone have any ideas where to get a cover for her dress? A seamstress said it can't be altered, so she would need something else.

I mentioned Davids Bridal to her, but does anyone have any other ideas. It doesn't have to match perfectly, it just needs to go with it. And the wedding is 2 weeks away

it is just a little wrap very soft almost a cashmere feel to it ...Bloomingdales sells it and plenty of vendors in Time square and check out ebay.......ant n tilde had them for her girls check out her review you can see a pic they come in alot of colors

I'm not sure where you or she are willing to travel to but Filene's basement has a lot of great wraps/pashmena style items at great prices. And a variety of colors.

There's one here in Fresh Meadows in Queens, and another in Manhasset.

Good luck :)
