Outside, against a hedge or??? move her forward as much as possible, then you move further back, and a 2.8 lens should give you a great bokeh . Cloudy day or early evening. Indoors near a window, no direct bright sun light ,sitting in a chair such as a wooden rocking chair .
Big comfy chairs are tough to get a good shot ( for me) It make them look small and frail .
to make her look younger a softbox helps fill her face but I like seeing all the wrinkles and cracks after all she is 100 not 49 ...

I'd ask her the funniest thing she ever heard!
One 103 year old lady quipped that the best thing about being 103 was "no peer pressure."

In a comfy chair by a window that is curtained, letting filtered daylight wash the room (and subject). The soft shadows will be flattering, and given that she doesn't look forward to this, the more she can feel comfortable in her surroundings, the likelihood you'll get a better shot. Think minimal gear for minimal impact. Have a conversation with her before you get started. As her to reflect on her life - get her talking and she won't even realize there is a camera in the room.
That's the ticket, I can hear the model utter: sony you should see me at fifty.....

Haha. I am sure she has seen more brightly colors, in all forms, that we could ever imagine. She is entitled to wear whatever she wants. Ten different outfits, no problem!
