The mothers dress to compliment the bride, not outshine her. So, the dress should not be white, longer or more formal than the bride's. Light colors, light neutrals or something in the same color family as the bridesmaids' dresses are good choices.
* The mother of the bride and the mother of the groom do not wear the same outfit. Mothers will wear dresses and they may be different in fashion and color as long as the color of the dress stays within the guidelines of the colors the bride has chosen for her wedding: Example: If the bride's Maid of Honor and Bridesmaids have long or short dresses in a midnight blue then the mothers could wear soft shell pinks; soft blues, etc. The bride or grooms mothers should never wear white or off white. One mother may want to wear a short dress while the other mother may prefer a longer dress. If you can and your Maid of Honor or Bridesmaids are in long dresses see if you can't get your mother and future mother-in-law to wear a long dress as well as it looks better in wedding pictures, but if one refuses it's not worth a possible argument. You can take your Maid of Honor with you and take both mothers to a wedding shop and have a say in what you would like as far as style, but go easy on the moms and realize they may have a good reason for choosing a certain dress to match their body type. If it is a matter of money for one or both of the mothers then rent the dresses.

There is a lot of flexibility in terms of what the mother of the bride can wear to her daughter's wedding. The mother should take into account the bride's wishes and try to accommodate them while also making sure she feels good in the dress she has chosen. A short skirt (or strapless gown, for that matter) is generally not preferred as anything too sexy risks upstaging the bride. However, the bride may be OK with it, so it's best to just ask. The overall goal is to complement and make the bride look good.

Yes, your dress should embellish the colour scheme of the wedding as wedding pictures will be taken. Example: The bride of course is in white (no other person should wear all white as the bride is the center point of the wedding) and her bridesmaids are in a deep purple or rose colored dresses then mother and grandmother should wear colours such as a shell pink; light mauve (pale violet color.) To take the guess work out of this problem go with the bride to the bridal shop and the shop owner will be glad to show you dresses that will be the right colour coordination as well as what looks good on your physical frame.
