Mother of the Groom, continued

My son's wedding is coming up fast (July 4) and I'm just a little bit excited about it!   Except I still don't know what I'm going to wear.  Yeah, I found that cute dress and I thought that would be just great. . . .but I forgot two very important things.

1. Dresses.  Don't wear 'em.  The occasional mu-mu around the house doesn't count.

2. Knits.  Don't like sewing them....and certainly have no business wearing them.

I remembered these very important things after I made the muslin of that dress.  Went together nicely; it's a cute pattern (I like Very Easy Vogue) but then I tried it on.  No no no.  Knits drape very nicely, it's true--but they drape right over each and every little bump.  The ones I'd like to emphasize and the others I'd rather not draw any attention to.

So, if I don't wear dresses, is it acceptable for the mother of the groom to wear pants?????????   Otherwise, I've got a BIG problem!
