When does 很 means "very" and when does it mean "is".

I was assuming that in sentences of the form subj + 很 + adj, it means "is". However, my HSK1 sentences have the following 2 examples:

我的妈妈很漂亮。 My mama is VERY beautiful.

你的衣服很漂亮。 Your clothes are beautiful.

Why does the first one has "very" and the second one doesn't?
