Boohoo must go to VERY different funerals to me...

Looking for something to wear to a funeral, and found a page on boohoo specifically titled Funeral, that said they had selected these items to help you feel strong on a difficult day. Either things have changed quite a bit since I last attended one, or they might want to tweak their algorithm...

(Until my images are released from "under review", there's a completely transparent dress over a black bikini, and a bloke in a black fleece dressing gown)

Id say most of them are ok tbh

You think the see through dress is suitable for a funeral? God I'm pretty relaxed but there is no way on earth I'd wear that for a funeral.

One way to put great uncle Fred into the hole at the same time save money and days off work.

Not that one but the first half seem ok

Personally I’d be delighted if someone rocked up to my funeral in a transparent black dress 😆it would, at least, be memorable

Maybe for the funeral of a particularly bohemian type soul. But at the funeral of a regular mere mortal then it would be viewed as outrageous. Blimey, I wouldn't even wear the see through dress to a party!

There’s not enough see through clothes at funerals in my opinion. I’m all for naked grieving.

Yes, it might be just the thing for a naturist funeral!

The problem is that many people seem to think that everybody is going to be sad attending their funeral. Mostly nothing could be further from the truth. Most of the relatives will be looking forward to the reading of the will.
Lots of crocodile tears at funerals.
Anyway it’s not as though funerals are rare, it’s difficult to get a booking at the crem.
Not many Chinese people die, I’ve never seen a Chinese funeral.

Good point, that must be why their population is so large.

😂I suppose that explains why there are so many of them...

Is this actually a thing? I’d like to think it isn’t, and yet

Beach funerals are woefully overlooked by most retailers. Finding something you can wear for Uncle Ragnar's longboat fireship farewell AND Glastonbury is no easy feat.
