Outfit for DF's funeral

[RobertJohnsonsShoes]

My lovely dad died and the funeral is next week. Anyone have any ideas on what to wear? For obvious reasons my heads a shed, and I can't seem to make the most basic of decisions... help!

I'm early 40's, size 10/12. Looking for a good basic but smart dress (or outfit), budget of £50 or less.

TIA

Sorry for your loss. This is short sleeved (not sure if you want long or not) but looks nice and is suitable https://www.next.co.uk/style/su481344/aj7159#AJ7159

Thank you, I have been looking at that one but wondering if it might be a bit clingy round the belly area.

I am sorry for your loss.
For my Mums funeral I wore a knitted black maxi dress and black ankle boots with a slight heel, I also wore a purple scarf as it was her favourite colour. I also carried quite an expensive bag as she was into bags.
I dressed in a way she would have approved of as she was very stylish

Sorry for you loss OP.
M and S have a nice black t dress style one or a roll neck style jumper dress.
I just bought them for a funeral and both would be suitable but I choose the t dress as more versatile I think.

I’m sorry for your loss. I didn’t read your brief properly so ignore what I put. I hope you find what you need. 💐

Thank you all, still can't decide but these are all lovely

This is long sleeved and looks like it would be quite comfy too. You mentioned an earlier one poss being too tight across stomach. Only £20 as well in sale.

The next one is lovely and looks as though it would skim the belly as opposed to emphasise it. Sorry for your loss

These are great thank you all

When my dad died I bought a few black dresses second hand on eBay. Kept the cost down and they were delivered to my house where I tried them on made my decision than weeks later I got around to donating them to the charity shop.

If you are worried about the belly area wear a loose cardigan with it. Is it waterfall style? And then possibly a smart scarf (sorry I know they have a name but it eludes me!)

Also if you don't were heels regularly then just wear flats. Dolly shoes or flat black boots. On the day you want to be comfortable.

I love that first Next one! I know what it's like to wrestle with the funeral outfit decision. Take care OP x
