Is this suitable funeral attire?

[EtiquetteUncertainty]

Title says it all! I thought this might be okay, but now I'm not sure.

Perfectly fine. Wear dark tights and a black/grey jacket…….if you have neither then a pashmina swagged around your shoulders looks equally as respectable.

Yes, with tights or boots and leggings if cold.

Yes.

It very much depends upon how formal the funeral is. I always black suit it because I can't go wrong then.

Your dress looks exactly like the majority of dresses at the last funeral I went to.
As the dress is showing your knees, I would wear black tights.

Thanks all, I wore the dress with dark tights, shoes, and coat (it was today and I was questioning myself at the last minute).

Yes with black/dark tights, as I wouldn't really want to be showing that much leg (but I do overthink these things).

I hope noone wears black to my funeral!

I'm not in the UK and hardly anyone wears black to funerals here. I find it really odd that people still do there.

It’s pretty common not to. I tend to wear navy. People often ask mourners to wear something bright and not wear black. It’s only on MN where black is the norm - and thick black tights!! Just not necessary and, honestly, no one looks or cares whether it’s black or other dark colours. It’s a case of being attired as the family of the deceased wish. Black shows no respect if they ask for red as the deceased support Manchester United!

Yes

Yes.

Maybe wear a black jacket or cardigan with it if you have one. But yes that looks appropriate.

I honestly couldn't have cared less what you wore to my dads funeral - i couldn't tell you what anyone was wearing that day. Id just be glad you came. I think most people feel the same.

Yes. Sorry for your loss.

Yes. Black or dark grey shoes and coat or jacket, and you’re fine.

TBH it depends on whose funeral it is and their wishes.
I've known funerals where the deceased banned black and wanted everyone to wear bright clothes.

I really don't think people care much about the 'right clothes' nowadays.

How is it odd? Symbolizes mourning in most Western cultures!
Or if you think I'm being too moralizing, let's get shallow . . . some of us look better and more put together & elegant in black for a formal occasion than in bright colours!

Oh, just seen it was 2 days ago.

Absolutely fine I would go with dark tights though

It has become more relaxed.
Someone in my family has made it very clear they want their funeral to be a celebration of their life, not a time to mourn and want everyone to wear bright clothes.

As long as its not high church then yes, if worn with tights and black shoes plus a black coat but I've seen all sorts of outfits at funerals over the years, (including a pink blue and cream shell suit ten years ago) so protocol seems to have gone out of the window.

All of the funerals I’ve been to, have had the majority of people still in black. Charcoal or navy at a push. Sometimes just a dark coloured coat when people have come straight from work.
Unless it was one where the family have asked for a specific colour code obviously.
OP I think that dress is ok as it’s monochrome (but it’s a possibly bit overly floral maybe). I would definitely put a dark coat on and black tights and shoes.

Yes for sure, I don't think you need solid black. I would wear with a black coat or blazer and black sensible shoes, up to you if you want to do tights or not. Also just double check any invites/announcements as a couple recently had some requests for bright colours or a specific colour - I think it's unusual but worth a double check!
