Besides your own wedding, one of the most important days of your life is likely to be watching your child get married. Therefore, since it is also one of the most photographed days of your life, it is essential that you choose the right, elegant mother-of-the-bride dress or outfit. If you are trying to select one of these dresses, then you are likely to have many questions.

There are many different fabrics that mother-of-the-bride dresses can be made of, including the following:

• Satin: A sleek and glossy fabric with a brilliant shine.
• Chiffon: A lightweight, plain-woven fabric.
• Velvet: A smooth, woven-tufted fabric.

For a plus size mother, there are several elegant plus size short sleeve or long sleeve options. A beaded jacket or sheath can add to the style.
