My momma needs a dress! Looking to keep it under 200 dollars, long length, no mermaid. My mom is only 5'1, curvy, and very big "girls" (sorry lol just being honest!)
We need recommendations for where to get a dress for her, or if you have pics of your MOB/MOG dress send em on please! We're only 4 months out and she's not having much luck!

Head to Macy’s and Nordstrom’s. Also Davids Bridal can help with the girls.
I am 5’6”, 145 and a 34/36G so I feel your mom’s challenges!
First dress is one I got engaged in, on my birthday, in Ireland, from Davids Bridal. Second is from Austria on the way to Vienna Opera and got gown at Nordstrom’s or Neimann Marcus Before we went. Both were about $200...

It’s a stretchy “jersey” net kind of material. And won’t wrinkle, lightweight and easily hides “flaws” while accenting the girls, bra friendly, and can safety pin to lessen clevage if wanted.
WOULD need to be shortened. Go up 2 sizes for girls. If she’s an 8 do a 12.

My mother in law went to Ross actually to get hers. It was super cheap since they have such a big selection of dresses

My mom purchased hers from David’s Bridal and it was around $100. They have a large selection to choose from.

My mom is 5'3" and curvy. She got her dress at Macy's. She had to have it hemmed but that's standard. I'm not even sure if my MIL is 5 feet tall and she got hers at Jcpenney, not sure on alterations. Both dresses were well under 200. There are petite evening gowns for sale on TJmaxxs website and Macy's, etc.

I agree with many on here....Macy’s is a good choice. Check online as well as in store. Dillard’s also has some nice dresses.

My mom got hers at Lord & Taylor. Basically, any department store.
