Mother of the Bride & Groom Dresses
You will be in every photo. Not standing behind the bride, but beside her, and the dress needs to hold up to that. This isn't the moment to disappear into something safe.
NARCES mother of the bride and mother of the groom dresses are designed for women who want something distinctive, modern and beautifully constructed. That might mean a sculpted bodice and a silhouette with real architecture. It might mean movement, a sculptural sleeve, intricate embroidery or one unexpected detail that makes the whole look feel considered rather than default. What it never means is choosing a dress simply because it feels “appropriate.”
Our collection ranges from mother of the bride gowns and evening dresses to cocktail silhouettes and statement pieces for more intimate celebrations. Many can also be adapted in our Toronto studio, whether you would like a different sleeve, neckline, length, coverage or another detail considered specifically for you.
Many of our mothers return to NARCES after the wedding, for a gala, milestone birthday or another celebration. These are pieces intended to have a life beyond one event, made with considered construction and fabrics chosen for the way they shape, move and photograph.
If you know what you want, explore the collection. If you're still working it out, that's exactly what a private appointment is for. For something entirely individual, we also offer custom mother of the bride and mother of the groom gowns, developed with you in our Toronto atelier.
