HELP! I need a posh frock miracle...

to make me look sort of effortlessly elegant at a family wedding in a country house Vienna later this year. I'm 5'1", 40 sort of blonde strawberry ish mid length hair, green eyes size 8-10 with a narrow waist and not a clue about what suits me and completely confused by the choice on the internet. Please take me in hand o wise ones! I prefer natural fabric wnd, don't do big fussy prints though. It's an all day 'do', so perhaps something that will look nice day and evening perhaps with a cap or short sleeve so I don't have to faff about with a pashmina? I'll be running around after dds no doubt so I'd rather not have anything too tight. Shoe suggestions too please. Will I have to have a hat at a Catholic wedding? Other guests will be arty/academic types. Something understated please, please. HELP!

That Jaeger dress is fab uwaga. I am the same shape and height as the OP, and I am coveting that dress in a big way!
