Wedding outfit for gran

I need to find something nice for my mum for a wedding. Must be trousers, and she is 5'2" and size 18. Also quite frail, so sensible shoes, but I'll take her to M&S for those probably.

Please help 💐

You don’t mention a budget?

And we don’t know if your mother is a frail 60 or a frail 90 years old and fashion conscious or not. How formal will the wedding be? Plain or printed trousers? Matching jacket or not? Or a blouse / shirt / top?

Essentially, are you asking for suggestions from Amazon, Coast, or Marina Rinaldi?

Similar situation, we bought plain top and trousers from M&S and a Chesca jacket similar to those below. NB, Chesca direct and John Lewis Chesca hold different stock so worth looking at both.

Chi Chi London and Hobbs petite might also be a good choice

Mum has zero fashion sense (I don't have much myself 😂), wedding is formal and budget is tricky. She won't want to spend too much, I'm thinking £200 max, but she would be happier with £50-100. If I can just find something she likes I'm happy to pay for it

If you've got time and know what size she is in most high street, Vinted is a great shout for worn once wedding stuff There's loads of Phase Eight etc on there.
