Since I generally wear coloured shirts with my kilts, I feel a black shirt and black hose to be more appropriate for a funeral than, say, red.
But since I more than make up for the sombreness of the black shirt with my Mighty Men kilt and waistcoat, I look quite bright all the same. A red tie and red flashes seem appropriate, too.
When my son-in-law’s grandmother was buried, his father made a point of thanking me for wearing my tartan, since the old lady was proud of her Scottish descent (Crichton) and loved tartans and kilts.
Regards,
Mike
