Help me find a funeral dress

[mumofweepeople]

Looking for a bit of help.

An immediate family member has taken their life. I'm organising the funeral and just don't have the energy to find a dress/outfit to wear.

In size 10. 5'5 and a pear shape. Late 30s. Something that doesn't need heels as I can't be doing with them.

Not that bothered about budget. Just whatever as long as the outfit works. Usually shop in M&S, boden and sometimes asos but that very hit and miss.

Thank you

Sorry for your loss @mumofweepeople

Maybe a simple shirt dress? Fine with flats or boots even depending on weather
Would you prefer dark navy to black?

This is very flattering. Look at it in the pink to see the detail clearer.
Winser Miracle Dress
Belted from Next and quite cheap. Belted
Gorgeous and can be worn again for loads of reasons but more expensive. Ralph Lauren
This is flattering for pear shapes and nice fabric Baukjen

Organising a funeral is exhausting when you are also grieving. Take care of yourself. x

@Laska2Meryls - I'm so sorry. It's a really awful experience. I hope you have support.

Really good ideas here. Actually like the miracle dress and would wear it for work. Definitely needs to be plain black I think. They were quite dramatic and traditional in that sense. I can see them loving everyone in full black and then playing inappropriate music to make people wonder what was going on. I'm laughing thinking about it. They were very funny when well.

yes , thanks it was my MIL , (she was fabulous and 'ill miss her so much )..
and many apologies mumofweepeople so wrapped up that I neglected to say sorry for you loss.

Forgive me .. and do remember to take time to look after yourself as well .xxx

DH and I am up for inappropriate music also! But I think the rest of the family wants traditional.. ..we are fighting hard against the suggestion of 'Somewhere over the rainbow' but I think we will lose ..

Mil loved Fats Wallah, so we want 'Ain't misbehaving' ( it wont happen.. )
