Hose advice

[Bugbear]

Question, please,

I have been lead to understand that BLACK kilthose are essentially worn only for funerals. Formal wear requires other deep, dark, rich colors .. but unless you're in mourning .. NOT black hose. (And if you ARE in mourning .. a black band around your arm, please) At least, that's what my Gran said.

I have never heard that about black hose. I think that the proper hose for formal attire are the tartan or diced hose, though, self colored hos of a darker shade might be all right.

I'm guessing that either of those would be acceptable for funeral attire. A black four-in-hand tie and white shirt probably are required. We'll see what others have to say.

I, personally, wear black kilt hose quite often. They match most of my tartans and to me look great with an Argyll jacket and a black tie no matter what the occasion. I select flashes to accent another color in the tartan.
