To be asked to be somebody's Matron of Honor is in fact, a great honor! However if the Matron of Honor is 30 or older, a traditional bridesmaid's dress will be inappropriate. Careful consideration needs to be taken when deciding what your Matron of Honor is going to wear. Remember this woman is older and has probably defined her taste in clothes. She will know exactly what she feels comfortable wearing and will not enjoy the Wedding if she is dressed in something she feels is unflattering. Firstly decide on your color scheme and try to choose a color that will flatter your Matron of Honor.
them but adult women cannot. Consider the color of her hair and eyes and her skin tone. Dark haired women look better in deeper colors and light haired women in lighter colors.
Secondly choose a style that will suit your Matron of Honor's body shape. It may even be nice to choose a dress that could be worn again at another occasion. The most important consideration is the fabric you choose for her to wear. Generally a plain color is more sophisticated and more timeless and will be easier to co-ordinate with the bride and general color scheme. If the Matron of Honor has a curvy figure, then choose a fluid fabric such as fine silk or chiffon wedding dresses. For women with straighter more athletic figures choose linen.
It is worth keeping the Matron of Honor completely involved in the decision. She is, after all the best friend of the bride and it is important to keep it this way.
