Ok, so she doesn't know but I WILL find her something for her 60th birthday party in 4 weeks time. She has a tendency to frumpiness and comfort clothes. These are the things you need to know:

She is size 14, no bum but big tum.
Boobs ok but not prone to having massive cleavage on view...I will be taking her bra shopping before the event...someone needs to talk underwired with her
Dark hair in a bob.
Can't wear anything short.
Will want her arms covered

Ok, that's all the don'ts

The dos are...

She has great skin, no turkey neck or that sort of thing!
She's happy with a bit of sparkle.
She can wear black.
She's quite arty so colour is fine too.

Ummm...don't know what else you might need to know. Mrs B...Cod et al ....get to work....

Aaahthankyou

Have'nt seen if anyone else has suggested as thread is long but have you tried Jacque Vert (sp) in Debenhams?

It dressed both MIL and DM for my wedding - lovely clothes - costs a little bit but not too much and how often does a DM turn 60?!

Hope she finds something she loves!

looks like these trousers go with the jacket

then she could have some massive in our face sparkly jewellry (you said she has a good neck)
