Outfit for my mum for upcoming wedding

It's not for my wedding, just a family wedding, but my lovely mum who spends her life in dog walking clothes is panicking about what to wear and I'm not sure where to look to help.

I'd like to order her a few things online so she can try on at home as she's really not a shopping type of woman.

I can't really imagine her in a fancy dress, the few times I've seen her dressed up she's been in a jumpsuit (and looked absolutely fab). She's average height, slim.

Any recommendations on where I should look? Or specific links to items that might fit the bill would be amazing!

Budget!???

And would she prefer something she’s likely to continue wearing?

Plain, patterned, sleeves? Strong colours or otherwise?

A more luxurious jumpsuit might be a good idea. Or a trouser suit?

Something like these two pieces together?

Or

this jumpsuit??

@MuddlerInLaw budget is under £100.

Doesn't need to be something she'll wear over and over. It'll stay in her wardrobe for other events in the future.

Plain or patterned and she's not afraid of bold colours. I'd say sleeves just because it might be quite cold by the time the wedding comes around (mid October).

@Edmontine that green suit is GORGEOUS. I could totally see her pulling something like that off but she'd probably want a less tailored look.

Ah, ok! I’ll just leave these here … Though it sounds as if the dark green suit wouldn’t. … suit.
