The Mother Of All Cross Dressing Questions
Today I have a somewhat whimsical question that I was going to limit to four answers, but I realized it was a broad (No pun intended!) question that ranges over decades.
My question is what T.V. mom would you most likely dress up as if you had the opportunity. This ranges all the way from the 50's to the present time. E.G. - I would choose Donna Reed (Donna Stone) in her T.V. series.

Loretta young may be before your time !
I vaguely remember that show. She was quite stunning. Especially as the Bishop's Wife.
Anyone who wore a flared skirt and petticoats.
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
Cybill Shepherd in Cybill...
90s fashions....
I want to be that woman!!

That's definitely "one" of the mother of all CD questions.
Reason is, I couldn't pick just one. I don't think I ever saw one I wasn't
mesmerized by...even going back as far as Betty Rubble. lol!
(Jane Jetson!)
We get 50's, 60's, 70's...etc/etc. Whoooo could pick just one!
(truth be told, I'm lately studying June Cleavers dresses. My sewing
machines are all long set up...just no time yet)
I'll try all of them if I live long enough....heehee!

I am going to go outside TV with my answer, unless of coarse she had a TV series, I am going to say Dolly Parton
Flip Flops were made for Beaches & Bath Houses, We have neither in 2017. Lose the flip flops!
Judith Light's "Angela Bower" ........ always dressed very well and with the hair styles and makeup to copy
she wasn't the mom, she had it just as good, and was the substitute,
Fran d the nanny,
without the voice of course .....

i dressed like a girl and i liked it!
Ok so she wasn't a mom but Eve Arden in Our Miss Brooks, every high school boys dream. And now that I am in my dotage Spring Byington in December Bride. Both wore the 50's button front dresses like my mother had. As a kid I thought they were really neat, I even undid all the buttons on one. I thought that how they went on like a shirt, duh.
Dressing is not a choice.
Its a passion.
I'm with Beverly, loved that style too
Here's a more recent one from me: not a mom at all because she and her husband are childless by choice, but I have to go with Claire Underwood from House of Cards (US version). Here are a few pics.

When writing the next chapter in your life, start with a pencil and eraser - my first page as Miki is full of eraser marks.
Omg! This totally feeds into my "I wanna dress like Peg Bundy" episodes lol
OK kids, back on track. the OP asked for people who played mothers...that is what makes this different than other threads that ask who you would emulate of which there is one going already. keep it on topic

Any Tv mother would do! But number one would Mrs. Cleaver from "Leave It to Beaver" love th outfits she wore in the show.

Loretta Young wore spectacular clothes, now only if she wore vintage fashion eyewear. After "The Loretta Young Show" went off air, Ms. Young had a very shorted lived YV series where she was a mother of a number of children, he was a widow and wore fashion eyewear. During her careen Ms. Young was always gorgeous and a lover & wearer of amazing clothing. She had a great smile & amazing lips, very gorgeous. But being a lover of rehead I was more of a fan of Maureen O' Hara, Rhonda Fleming, Arlene Dahl, & Amanda Blake. While "strutting around my spacious pad, I do an inpersonation of "Miss Kitty", she sure was pretty !

I would love to be Samantha Stephens ( Elizabeth montgomery ) from "Bewitched ". She had sexy hair , was pretty with a nice figure , enjoyed wearing shorter dresses that displayed great legs , & could "twinkle " het nose to create anything she wanted. She could change locations , dress styles & embarrassing moments . Her daughters name was Tabitha. Now , if I could only twinkle my nose to immediately create my ideal girlie figure, I would be in heaven. Oh yeah , she had a crazy uncle ( paul lynde ) who was a one line comic genius. Laughter is always good medicine.
I'm gonna go with Clair Huxtable! Succesful lawyer and mother, smart, pretty and she was always dressed perfectly!

I second this!!!
I don't remember the name of the show, the husband just got a job as chief of police, the son was played by John Ritter's son and he was in a wheelchair, the daughter, I don't remember her name, but the mother, I really liked her.
It was on the air for a couple of years. I just googled and found it! Joan of Arcadia. Mary Steenburgen. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_of_Arcadia
Me too!
Although, come to think of it, I already do!
