Values Of Clothes To Wear To A Funeral

Dress for a memorial service should be conservative. The funeral clothes you choose reflect your own respect and recognition that the occasion is to honor your friend or loved one. Choosing the appropriate clothing will ensure you are more comfortable and able to focus on the task at hand.

Females do well in selecting black for the occasion. Whether you select a suit or dress, the color is versatile yet respectful. Black can give a dressy and conservative option. It speaks of the honor you are paying the individual. Avoid the use of any loud or otherwise splashy colors. Grey and navy are also appropriate if you prefer something other than black. Outfits should cover the shoulders as well as the knees. Choose conservative and comfortable shoes, especially if you are attending a graveside service.

Men do well to choose a conservative suit. Black, grey or dark blue are the best choices in color. Your shirt needs to be crisp with a white collar. Choose a conservative tie and tone down the jewelry to a wedding band and watch. For funerals in the winter, you may add a black or other dark colored trench coat.

Unless the service is for their immediate family member, leave younger children with a sitter. If older children and teens attend the service, their clothing should reflect that of the same sex parent. With preteens, the dress can be a little more casual.

Always carry an umbrella for outdoor services. You will be more comfortable when dry if it happens to rain. A conservative hat is appropriate for either a man or woman. Be sure you bring extra handkerchiefs or tissues.

Select funeral clothes to show respect for individuals who have passed. Dark clothing is the best choice, with black the preferable color. Appropriate dress can also be comfortable. If there is a chance you will need to stand for an extended period, wear comfortable shoes.
