Wedding jumpsuit outfit help please!!

I've got a close family wedding coming up in September - I've got all the kids sorted but I can't for the life of me find anything for me to wear. It's a pretty relaxed wedding but everything I find is a bit too relaxed and I'll like something that feels great.

I've got this image in my head of a jumpsuit with an all over floral pattern (sort of Laura Ashley or Liberty type print), kind of darkish background maybe and small flowers all over...... but I can't find one anywhere! My biggest sticking point seems to be I can't stand polyester and nylon! (especially in summer) Viscose would be amazing or cotton or silk (maybe not on my budget!) - just not polyester. The only jumpsuits I've found a more utilitarian and I want something with a bit more flow and elegance.

I'm 5ft 7, size 20, 45, quite well proportioned but with a big enough tummy and boobs that need a bit of support (so v neck is fine but not too deep). My arms aren't bad but would prefer some kind of sleeve and I like it quite long (but not too long cos I can't manage much of a heel). I'm not big on clothes (most of mine came from Sainsbury's!!) and budget is up to £100 (a little more if I really love something.)

Oh and it's probably going to have to be online shopping as there are very limited options where I live and even our nearest big city pretty much only has a phase 8, monsoon and primark!

I like this one but it's polyester and it's not exactly right but you see the idea. Love a bit of elastic or a nice thick belt around the middle to actually give me a waist.

Has anyone found anything that might fit the bill? All suggestions very gratefully received cos I've ground to a bit of a halt!! thank you all in advance for your wisdom and knowledge!!

I think you may have to compromise on sleeves and either wear a clingy top of appropriate weight underneath or a jacket/ shirt/ kimono/ cardigan over the top.

Try sites which let you filter by fabric, like this. Mostly a bit expensive, but I've sorted by price and there are some that might do if you're flexible about the pattern.

Fatface does a lot of stuff in viscose, not much at the moment, although this has sleeves and a flowery print on a red wine background. Might be worth checking again towards the end of August if you've not found anything by then.

I'm a long way from being the world's most enthusiastic clothes shopper, but hopefully this response will give your post a bump and more suggestions.

I was going to recommend Hathaway from Popsy but they don’t seem to have any at the moment although there are some other lovely prints. If you’re an 18/20 then a 20 will fit nicely. Their sizes are generous, but also very comfy!

Not the right pattern, but it's linen mix:
Phase Eight

That's beautiful!

Thank you all! that's given me loads of options I hadn't found!

Haven't come across Popsy before ...... completely not the pattern I was looking for but I love this (unfortunately sold out so might have to go and trawl vinted) https://www.popsyclothing.co.uk/collections/jumpsuits/products/ephron-jungle-fever-print-cotton-jumpsuit?variant=55258010845559

and I had no idea John Lewis could filter by material - thank you! Will go on a dive into all these options now.
