Bulgarian brand Tonena has unveiled a ‘sexy mother of the bride dress’ on Etsy.
The gown is over $2,000 and the handmaid gown features an open back, off-the-shoulder lacy sleeves and a whole lot of feathers.
But it’s not the price that’s getting people talking, it mainly starts around this tweet posted by podcast host Rave Sashayed.

It soon became a social media sensation and now has more than 22,000 likes, plus it set off a series of memes featuring Mrs Robison and Elvira.

This company has other dresses meant for the mother of the bride/groom, though most do look like they’re suited for Elvira than a normal mother.
Before the show…
Brian, Ali, and Justin discussed this story and actually thought the woman in the dress was actually a mother who wore it to her daughter’s wedding.
But just to be clear, this isn’t a mother wearing the dress for her daughter’s wedding. The woman in the dress is a model, unlike what Brian and Justin thought. Idiots.
This Twitter user actually has a good point to maybe why they might have thought that.
But why is she the age of someone who would not be a Mother of a bride?. Why are all mother of bride dresses modeled on 18-20something year olds?

Then again, maybe not.
