How To Dress For A Funeral



Pay your respects with grace and dignity by wearing appropriate attire.

Step 1: Wear dark colors
Choose dark colors. While black is traditional and safe, dark blues and grays are also acceptable.

Step 2: Dress for house of worship or a job interview
Dress as you would for a job interview or house of worship. A suit, collared shirt, and tie are appropriate for men. Women may wear a pantsuit, skirt suit, or a modest dress that covers the shoulders or is accompanied by a wrap.

Step 3: Be sensitive to religious customs
Be sensitive to the dress codes of certain religious or cultural customs. Ask in advance, if you can.

Step 4: Wear appropriate accessories
Wear appropriate accessories, such as closed-toe shoes, a muted color tie, and understated jewelry. Hats should be formal and not too big or flashy.

Step 5: Bring a handkerchief and umbrella
Have a handkerchief handy for yourself or to lend to someone in need. An umbrella is also a good idea for hot or rainy outdoor funerals.
