Help me find a dress for a job interview

I have an interview coming up for a mid-level office-based role. I'm carrying some extra baby weight that I haven't managed to shift, so my old office clothes no longer fit.
I'm quite tall, about 5ft10, and a size 14 for dresses. I'm looking for something that's comfortable and smart, sits below the knee and with a price point around the £80 mark.

Ideally something I can wear to work in the future, not just for an interview scenario. I generally prefer flowing to tailored.

Do you have any suggestions?

Something like this - below your price point but better if temperatures drop:

@Commonsense22 you need to return to your thread and comment, or add details, if you want people to respond. If it doesn’t matter to you it’s not going to matter to anyone else …

I’d just got for this sort of style, most makes do something similar. Perfect office wear. I’m am not sure about length I’m afraid as I’m a lot shorter
