This is my first post, but I'm having terrible trouble finding something for my mother to wear for our wedding. Its not until August, but she gets very anxious about things and I want to find something we agree on as she's not well enough to look after herself with this.
She needs a LONG (ankle or floor length) skirt, to cover her legs (which are often swollen/discoloured/painful etc) when sitting in a wheelchair. She also needs it to be an outfit of separates (not a dress), so she can order more than one skirt (and be changed when incontinence becomes an issue without having to get fully undressed in the loo). She's a size 22 (at least), over 60, and obviously I also want her to look and feel nice in it.
I have tried all the obvious plus-size and 'old lady' stores (3v@n$, $!mplyb3, M+$, JL, Fl0r3ty br0wn, B0n m@rch3 etc), and been scouring the internet for weeks - but I can only seem to find stuff that's either far too young for her, pretty but knee/mid length, or long but a dress not an outfit of separates.
I have some budget, but obviously needing 2 skirts at least I don't want it to be too pricey. Any tips?
Thanks

Hiya.
My Nan uses a company called D@x0n for her outfits. They go up to a size 34. Not sure if any of their stuff will be suitable for your mum, but might be worth a look. x

Would any of the department stores with a personal shopper be able to help? They may be able to show you items that could work. I have used the one in D3bs before and they were really great. X

I was going to suggest the same as Kirsty. Or maybe j0hn L3w15?
Good luck, I'm sure you will find something that will look lovely
