Get over it. The invitation said ‘dress’, not jumper, not pantsuit, not tennis shorts. Maybe since she is homeschooled, she’s not used to following those kinds of directions.
If she didn’t agree with the invitation, then don’t go.
Have your own private ‘Jumper Jamboree’.

My sons had to buy suits and ties for their (homeschool) dances.

If you don’t like the dress code, then don’t go to the dance.

Lots of stories in the news about school students crying over dress codes.

Surprising to see a homeschooler this time.

Bingo!

At risk here is the concept of "standards" and whether those who have the right to establish them, the school or the student dance committee, also have the right to enforce them. If not, the inmates run the asylum.

While a big supporter of the right to home school, I wonder if there is a risk it may produce students who think they are the center of their environment. Such a belief, of course, seldom leads to a long and happy life
