My great aunt put out a notice before she passed from cancer. She was tired on drab and requested everyone wear bright, fun colors. Even went so far as saying she would personally haunt anyone who wore black 😅
@@sarahlabbe9779EXACTLY! My grandmother basically said she would haunt us if we wore boring attire, especially said attire like black stuff. The only black thing I wore was my chinos, but the rest of me was colorfoul as heck. I wore a white floral patterned buttoned up and rocked a Turquoise blazer with that. I feel super confident and handsome with that. I miss her so much. It will have been a year since her passing on December 28th.
My sister wore a bright pink dress to our mom’s funeral 🤷♀️ she always said she wanted her funeral to be a celebration of her life & not just a day full of sadness. We’re not exactly a traditional family tho hahahah
Guys, he said that’s the TYPE of suit you’d wear to a funeral, not the exact one. Charcoal and black suits fell into that category as well. His example just happened to be blue.
Had to wear a suit and tie every day in the field for a number of years. I realize some young folks entering the workforce may stumble on this page and wanted to give some advice. You need a dark navy and grey suit as a standard (you can get away with a single navy suit if you just need it for an interview and are on a budget. ). Black suit isn’t very useful, tans, greys, and stripes are nice to add in and great in the summer (I’d avoid white as it’ll look awful in short order. If you’re young; focus on getting a suit that fits you well vs a fancy name brand or an expensive suit. I would also stick with more reasonably priced suits from Jos A Bank etc. if you’re wearing suits every day for work since they’ll wear out regardless and a very high end suits often times are pretty delicate and prone to looking like crap in a short period of time. $1000+ suits are indistinguishable to 99% of the population and almost anyone that matters. Most important is the fit, how neatly pressed it is, how worn it is. I several times have had people tell me a clearance Jos A Bank suit was a $1000 suit whereas more expensive suits that fit me worse looked budget bin. One mistake to not repeat is never buy a rack suit that isn’t cut well for you and rely on a tailor to make adjustments. 1.) It’s outrageously expensive and by that time you could have gotten something to fit you off the rack for less 2.) most tailoring of off the rack suits are called alterations for a reason and trying to make a suit for a fat guy fit a slim guy is going to look like shit since the tailor isn’t going to be able to adjust a lot of stuff. Spend your money on a good recraftable Oxford shoe, those will last you a lifetime. Don’t wear a blue suit to a funeral since you’ll look like a jackass.
As a non suit wearing person that alters their own clothing id also highly recommend learning basic stitching. Some things you need some experience to alter but sleeve and pant length are incredibly simple and are often the main parts that wont fit in a correctly sized off rack suit. This can save you hundreds of dollars and all you need is something to measure with, correctly colored thread, a needle, a pencil (graphite washes out super easy), and ideally some pins but you can get away with out it. The second you can do those minor alterations all you have to worry about when buying a suit is how it fits in the sholders/torso and how it fits in the waist. Itll take some practice and a few tries till you get it to look good but you can do it.
Agree with most of what you said. My major exception is that not all have a body type that can buy off the rack. For example, I wear a 46r jacket and have a 35" waist. Most pants that come off the rack with a 46r are waaaaaay too large for me. I'm talking 40 or 42" waist. In those cases I recommend starting with a trip to the tailor because a custom suit might actually be cheaper than buying off the rack and then altering the snot out of it.
I was always taught that the only people who should own black suits are hitmen and undertakers. (A dark blue is an excellent substitute for a black suit on most occasions.) I worked with an attorney years ago and he wore black suits exclusively. When I told him the hitman/ undertaker line, he replied in all seriousness, “on a good day I like to think I’m both.” 😂
Black suits can be worn, but most people that advise against them do so on the basis of skin color, they state that a black suit on a light skin individual makes them look excessively pale. I have 2 black suits and they are too somber for most occasions and when I wear them I match them with light green, bright yellow shirts but I'm getting to the age (42) where such colors might not fly.
@@robertopicst depends on what undertone and eye color you have. I don't know if you've heard about color seasons but basically winters (people with cool undertones and eyes and hair with high contrast to it) look good in black and white. So someone with very pale cool skin will look their best in black, although it won't fit everyone:) these people might even look washed out in tan!
Here's a nice tip. Don't buy an expensive suit to start out. Buy an affordable suit and tailor it. It will look expensive, be more comfortable and you can try out a suit before committing to a more expensive one (if you ever decide to go for expensive, which is not needed). Also if at all possible don't wear a blue suit to a funeral. It would be better to wear a dress shirt with black jeans then a blue suit. You could go to the local goodwill and see if they have suits.

A dark navy would be appropriate in most instances. Depending on how many funerals you're planning on going to I wouldn't recommend someone goes out and gets a black suit over a navy or grey.
Perfect! Means you can start a suit collection from scratch! Personally, I'd recommend staying far away from that absurd amount of hats he has though. Seriously. He has a problem

@@joelkumar2853 It is more important to dress soberly and with respect than to wear black to a funeral and, to dress in honour of the spirit of the person whom has passed with allegiance to their loved ones left behind.
Tip: Mix and match as much as you want forever, but make sure you clean all pieces of each suit together. Otherwise, one piece will wear out before the other and they'll look mismatched.
You'd have fitted right in with the 1980s jet set yuppie bunch. They sure enjoyed playing shop window mannequins. More mannequin shenaniquins next time, folks.
I know there are some super creative guys out there who come up with so many exciting clothing and fashion combinations, but if I go to a wedding and look out in the crowd, every guy is in the same exact navy or black suit. Fashion is just that one area in life where I am so glad to be a woman because possibilities are just endless. It’s why it takes forever to get dressed!

The color someone wear at a funeral is sometimes flexible. My aunt passed away and her kids wanted the family to wear an outfit with green in it, since green was her favorite color. I have heard stories from friends of people wearing red and other colors at a funeral because the person who passed away wanted there funeral to be a more uplifting event. I saw nothing wrong in wearing that color suite to a day time funeral.
Lot of hate on the idea of wearing a black suit in the comments on this one. I think that you can't go wrong with a black suit. Monochrome black is great for upscale lounges and clubs. Pair the pants with a neutral colored knit polo (without the jacket) for drinks at a nicer bar. Black suits are appropriate for funerals, business, and partying. You cannot go wrong with a black suit. It's not tacky or outdated. Just wear it with confidence.
Do not wear a blue suit to a funeral.
I'm confused too.
Too late
Many accept navy
You can wear dark colours. Whilst black is customary, not every single person wears black.
I don't care what people wear to my funeral, just being there is nice
You are all welcome to wear whatever you want to my funeral. Blue, Orange, I wont care.
Thank you, I agree
If people don't dress to my funeral like it's the met gala, I've failed at surrounding myself with the right people
