Knowing The Basics Of Proper Funeral Clothes

Attending a memorial service is often a stressful event. Selecting the correct funeral clothes can help you to be less stressed while showing your respect for the individual who has passed. The right clothing allow you to be more comfortable at the event and if necessary, focus on your own grief.

Women are well served with black clothing for this occasion. A black suit or dress is very versatile. In addition, either option can be both dressy and conservative. The color speaks of your honoring the individual. Loud and splashy colors are out for funerals. Grey or navy blue are also good options if you do not want to wear black. Your outfit should cover both your knees and shoulders. Shoes should be conservative and comfortable, especially for the graveside service.

For men, a conservative suit is the best choice. Black, dark blue or grey offer the best color choices. Shirts should be crisp and have a white color. Your tie should be conservative and jewelry limited to your wedding band and a watch. In the winter, consider adding a dark trench coat.

In most cases, younger children should be left with a sitter unless the service is for an immediate family member. Older children and teens should follow the dress of their parent of the same sex. Preteen boys may attend with a white shirt and tie.

Be sure to bring an umbrella if the service is scheduled out of doors. It is much more comfortable if you are dry. Place an extra handkerchief in your pocket for the day.

Funeral clothes should show respect for the individual who has passed. They should be black or another dark, conservative color. Dress appropriately yet in comfortable clothing and shoes in case you must stand for a considerable time.
