Funeral wear

M&S black dresses don't appear to be in stock.... So, what does a 5ft 2, size 16/18 50+ year old wear to an old ladies funeral?

Prefer high street shop as can see the fabric before buying. Everywhere seems either mini or midi, which is my case is probably floor length.

Desperately trying to find an appropriate dress at the cheaper end of market. Suppose black trousers would suffice, but would need jumper too, as it's turning a bit wintry.

Any ideas?

What about navy, does it have to be black?

Why not a skirt, blouse and jacket? Or black trousers, blouse and jacket? I agree, navy would be suitable too, but more important its smart and clean.

I've found these, but not sure how they'd look on. What did you want to spend?

The above matalan one also has a petite range one.

Or this with a jacket, cardigan or pashmina?
