Vienna capsule wardrobe help!

DH and I are going to Vienna for 4 days in July to celebrate our wedding anniversary.
I have read that women in Vienna tend to dress "smart and polished" and it's going to be hot in the daytime, so I am thinking of maybe some wide linen trousers, shirts, mid-length skirt etc. Not sure about a layer for warmth in the evening.
We will be going to an open-air opera, string quartet in a church, waltzing lesson, smart cafes and sightseeing.
My usual shops (Hobbs, Phase Eight, Boden) are all full of floral, frilly summery beach or wedding things and I want a more cool and collected look. I like plain colours usually - navy, terracotta, khaki, coral, gold, teal (I don't mind a very small pattern but I am quite fine-featured and big bold patterns overpower me).
Please help me create my capsule wardrobe!

You need to ask for this thread to be moved to “style and beauty”.

But have you tried Poetry, massimo dutti, jigsaw, Me and Em? Wyse? M&S is good too although a lot of it is out of stock.
