INTRODUCTION
Though black is traditional for a funeral in Western cultures, there are other options that are just as acceptable today, depending on how well you knew the person.
MEN
Wear a black suit with a white shirt. Accessorize with a long, neutral necktie. Think twice about wearing too much jewelry or hair product.
However, there are always exceptions to the rules. A blue suit with a black turtleneck, black dress shirt with long red tie, black dress shirt (no tie; first button unbuttoned), or a black T-shirt (clean, kind of silky) could all be acceptable depending on the family.If you are a pall-bearer, you should expect to wear a suit or a dark sport coat and tie at the very least.
WOMEN
Women should chose classic black attire for a funeral. A black dress with sleeves, or dark suit with jacket. It is possible to wear a not-too-brightly colored dress under a black coat.
Some color accessorizing is acceptable. Simple jewelry.
