Funerals I have conducted have had a dizzying array of inappropriate and even disgusting dress. I have tried to ignore it since that's not what a funeral is about, but rather commending the deceased to the care of God.
Dress to be not noticed. It's not about you. It's about the deceased, the family and God.
