Additional Comments: Amber sure knew how to grate Phyllis when she showed her a sketch of what Phyllis should wear at the wedding. I thought the mothers of the bride and groom selected their own outfits, and the bride had a say in the bridesmaids' gowns/dresses.

Message: If Phyllis was going to be my mother-in-law (of course, they pick their own clothing. They aren't bridesmaids) I would be a bit concerned. She loves skin showing. Who knows what she would wear.

Message: Doesn't really matter now since this big wedding is not going to happen according to today's show. It was a really funny scene and I enjoyed it immensely.

Message: But then most grooms' mothers don't have daughter-in-laws-to-be who are world-renown, mega-talented fashion designers... (stop reading here and roll eyes).

Message: Wasn't that fun to watch? Amber's enthusiasm was hysterical and Phyllis was absolutely beside herself...freeaked-out and speechless! I believe the wedding day is all about the bride and groom. So if there is a request by the bride to the ''mother'' of whomever, then it should, at the very minimum, be considered. Not necessarily agreed apond, but considering it wouldn't hurt anyone. Phyllis dresses in many provocative styles, so Amber's suggestion might just suit her.

Message: I believe that's usually the case, although the mothers of the bride and groom might wish to dress in one of the wedding colors. You know Amber, though. She's a design freak and thinks everyone else ought to share her own level of bad taste.
