Help me find a black dress

I need a black dress for a funeral. I'd like midi length, ideally not sleeveless. Can you Style & Beauty queens help me find one? Budget is around £80.

I wore a black cotton Cos dress to a memorial service this week and it felt perfect - they don't have the exact style in stock any more, but this is the closest:

Also like the look of this at & Other Stories, though is a cotton/poly mix:

Sorry that's a duff link to the Cos dress for some reason - try this one

I have a black jersey dress from Boden that would be perfect (plus pockets!)

I found this at John Lewis & Partners. What do you think?  https://www.johnlewis.com/kin-cotton-funnel-neck-gathered-waist-midi-dress-black/p5668465?tmad=c&tmcampid=7&sshare=jlappioss_Y29tLmFwcGxlLlVJS2l0LmFjdGl2aXR5LkNvcHlUb1Bhc3RlYm9hcmQ=

£45. Not sure how it fits yet but I am hopeful

Thank you - some lovely ones here. Pockets are always a bonus! Thanks for your help.

I saw some gorgeous Vila black dresses in TkMax today, about £16.00. Would have got one if I didn’t have a white dog.

I have the Amelie Boden one linked to above - I have it in black and navy and has been very versatile to wear - I buy the longer one as otherwise it's too short for me
