Green dress for a funeral.

Can anyone help me find a green dress? It is for a funeral, the requested colour is green or green/red. A patterned dress with green as the major colour would be fine I think. Nothing sombre, but not too frivolous either, tunic and trousers would also be an option. I have some red shoes so might go with them or wear red or green tights with a dress.

I don;t want to spend a huge amount because I don;t think I shall have the heart to ever wear the dress again - it will be too associated with sadness, so budget under £50 if possible.

I am 5'2" , in my fifties and wear a size 12 if that is any help (although again I am not too bothered about looking wonderful in it - it is the colour and tone of the dress that is important - girl who died was young, fun loving, very special, - her family want the funeral to be a celebration of her life and the things she loved)

TIA

I saw this in Peacocks the other day and really, really liked it.

Those are both nice thank you - the tea dress is a nice idea - she had a definite vintage vibe going on in her sense of style - she'd have liked that dress Smile

I like the one from Peacocks, and at that price it doesn't matter if you don't wear it again. Plus it would look lovely with red shoes! So sorry for your loss.
