Help! Black suit for funeral!

5 replies

notanumber · 17/11/2009 12:58

Am far to much of a porker to fit into the black suit in my wardrobe, so need to buy a new one URGENTLY as funeral on Friday.

I am 5'2" and a size 12ish. Would like a suit that doesn't give people electric shocks when I shake their hand but doesn't cost the GDP of an African country.

Skirt or trouser suit is fine, nothing too "fashion". To be worn for funerals and other formal occasions.

Can anyone steer me in the right direction as very short on time?

Thank you!

Thank you, I was thinking along those sort of lines.

Cheapish - about £150 I suppose.

Debenhams have 25% off and lots of nice petite suits:

Debenhams petite jackets

One of those over this Shift dress with some black boots would look very smart.

Ah....That's a good idea, thank you.

Does involve braving Oxford Street but there is a good chance of me coming home with a suit.
