Gottsman also recommends accessorising with simple jewellery, and a hat if it is low-key. Modern etiquette coach Maggie Oldham also shared her advice for dressing appropriately for a funeral, which includes dressing in dark, muted colours (think black, navy, dark grey) and avoiding pastels, light colours, and bright colours. Agreeing with Gottsman, Oldham told us: You dont HAVE to wear black, but definitely wear dark colours. She also recommends wearing dresses that are knee-length or one inch above the knee only, not showing cleavage, avoiding distracting/flashy materials such as sparkles, animal prints and other decals, and adding only muted accessories as this is not the time to wear stilettos or statement jewellery. As for whether the womans black ruffled dress is appropriate, Oldham says it does meet all the requirements except for one - as the frills would be considered distracting/flashy in her opinion
