Lydie | Mother of the Groom Dress

A two-piece dress gives a mother of the groom more choices on the day

Weddings in different venues ask for different amounts of coverage. Lydie deals with that through a lace layer worn over a simple pencil dress. The two pieces work as one look, and they make a formal ceremony feel much simpler to plan for.

Pattern over a simple base. Fine floral lace falls over the top and past the hips. Depth comes without any fuss underneath.

Slim under the lace. A clean, knee-length pencil dress sits beneath the overlay. The outline stays neat and structured.

Covered with air. The lace sleeves reach below the elbow and lighten the look on the arms. Heat in a crowded room is less of a problem.

Carefully finished edges. The lace ends in curved scallops at the hem and cuffs. Up close, those small details show the care.

A good wedding outfit should still feel right once the speeches are over. These two layers look just as considered at the end of the night.
