Beautiful mother of the bride Betsy Bensen, jeweler extraordinaire [check out her fantastic work here, standing next to her gorgeous daughter in my ‘Party Loops’ top.
I love this photo!
Thank you Betsy for sending it to me!
‘Party Loops’ was sewn with many skinny bias tubes of silk, looped and stitched in place with beads onto a sheer kimono silk.
My inspiration? I wanted it to look as though it had been woven from a bouquet of flowers.

Add and Mix
In 2010 I made a Mother of the Groom outfit for Mary Jane, in pinks with silver beads.
A few years later, for more mix and match options, I added in a pieced top and grey skirt.
Time flies! Turn around and grandchildren arrive.

Mother of the Bride
There’s the rehearsal dinner, the ceremony, the reception, the brunch. What to wear? One outfit for all? Something different for each?
And what if you don’t, not ever, want one of those, well, you know, one of those dresses.
The beautiful Judy chose “Fragments”.
Fabulous!
