Please would this elastic be suitable to place in a sundress

Yes, of course, depending on where on a sundress you intend to hide the elastic. It's 5mm wide so you'd need a hem of at least 6mm. If you're using the elastic at the waist I think you'd need to get wider [and therefore stronger] elastic.

Discoloured

This elastic band would have looked much better if it was much whiter and not the off white which it is. If it is to be used and not seen it will be suitable in size and elasticity.
