My daughter is getting married in late June with a formal, evening reception. Her dress is ivory, has a sweetheart neckline with ruched bodice and up-tucks on the skirt. She's adding a silver and pearl belt. The nine bridesmaids are wearing gunmetal gray knee-length, with sweetheart necklines, matching sashes and up-tucked skirts. Flower colors are yet to be decided. I have read previous posts that indicate that MOB's should mirror the bridesmaids but can't I wear floor length? I would prefer that even to tea-length and I am definately not a knee length gal anymore. I'm a young 50's, average build but don't like my calves!

Dear Conway,
Your dress shouldn't be more formal than the bridesmaids. So, if the long dress is more formal than theirs, it is a problem. It would be better to wear dress that is not so formal.
MOB dress to mirror bridesmaids length?
