     MOB dress color to coordinate with hot/pink or fushia  

My daughter is getting married in March at 6:00 pm. Bridesmaid dresses are hot pink (or fuschia?) tea length, & chiffon. I am having a very difficult time finding a dress that would work. I don't know what color, length, etc. to look for. I'm also very limited with places to shop where we live. I would appreciate any help you can give me. I'm starting to get stressed!!

Congratulations on your daughter 's wedding! Color-wise, you can go from Burgundy to Eggplant, or if you prefer lighter shades, Lavender - it will look good in photos, as long as you stay within the "cool" color family. As to the formality of the dress, it has to be the same formality as Mother of the Groom's. Make sure it's not too revealing. Styles with bolero jackets work well for Mothers of the Bride and Groom. Enjoy the wedding!

My choice would be gold (or shades of yellow), depending on your skin tone. Jewel tones go well with fuschia but tend to be dark. Check with your daughter to see if she has planned any coordinating colors in the decorations and/or flowers and then work off those colors.

Shopping online is always a convenient choice if you live in a place where shopping is inconvenient. Just be sure to check out the online store completely. Make sure they list a telephone number and have clear return/exchange policies. Call the customer support number to ask questions before buying. That will give you a good idea about the shop's customer service and responsiveness. If the store offers swatches get them so you can see the fabric and color in person and hold it up to the fuschia to compare.
