Mother of the Bride Trouser Suits & Evening Trousers

Can a Mother of the Bride Wear Trousers?

Not everyone is a dress person so if you are not comfortable showing your legs, choose a pair of dressy trousers. Wide-leg palazzo pants can be transformed for the Big Day with a shimmer silk frock coat. We hope you are inspired by our modern Mother of the Bride trouser suits.

Evening Trousers with a Lace Jacket

For an evening reception change from a coat to something with a little more sparkle and lace. Longer length jackets and coats with 3/4 sleeves work well with trousers and give a slimming appearance. Whilst unstructured designs with open front or one button fastenings look good without adding bulk. We hope you like our selection of modern Mother of the Bride trouser suits and occasion trousers.
