Don’t buy a Mother of the Bride hat…

… before you buy the outfit.  Even if you absolutely fall in love with it, it’s a mistake.

The chances are you will find it prohibitively difficult to find the right outfit to match the hat you like.  There are so many different shades of colour in outfits.

Please come in to see us at Le Chic Boutique in Bromley first (20 Minutes from London Victoria to Shortlands station).

Note to Mothers of Grooms:

It is a courtesy to let the Mother of the Bride to choose the colour of her outfit and to buy the outfit first.

I advise Mothers of Brides to go for subtle print outfits to wear on the wedding day.  That way you won’t see the photographs in years to come and think “What was I thinking at the time?”

A very satisfied customer sent her friend saying “the shop is tiny but Koulla knows her stuff”.  The friend came in very confused, saying “tiny??”.

We’re recently refurnished our shop making it a very ample 50 feet long (16 metres).  It’s so big the lady was wondering if she was in the right place.

But not everything has changed; Koulla still knows her stuff.

Koulla recommends that the June 2011 Mother of the Bride should be shopping now.  This way you have less stress, there is still stock and you have plenty of time to do any difficult alterations.

It saves time if you, the Mother of the Bride, let us know your budget and if it is strict or a broad target.  It means you can focus on the Mother of the Bride outfits that you may end up buying.

Mother of the Bride tip for choosing the outfit.

When you choose the outfit, you’ll want to wear the outfit and not let the outfit wear you.  That way you’ll be a very attractive Mother of the Bride.

We want to offer youteh best outfit for you at great value.  Our prices are never more than the Recommended Retail Price.

Here is a “tweet” message about a Mother of the Bride dress from Twitter, a social networking website. 

“need mother of bride dress- what do you get if colors are black and ivory???”

I’ve advised the person to take a look at our Condici collection:

Mother of Bride outfit - Condici dress and jacket

Never buy a dress without the jacket.

If you buy the dress first, there is a big risk that you will spend months and months looking for a matching jacket.  It will look like you’ve borrowed the jacket!  It’s very hard to match the colour, fabirc and texture.  Koulla has built up her expertise over 23 years of buying dresses and jackets from designers based on the up-coming trends and picking out the right outfits for customers when they come in.

Remember, always buy the dress and jacket together.

When you are coming to try on the Mother of the Bride or Groom dresses and outfits, it would be lovely if you bring your own black high heeled shoes.  This way you can see more clearly for yourself how you will look on the wedding day.
