    no, i wouldnt. At a funeral you are not supposed to wear any colors other then black unless someone tells you, and is part of the deceaseds household, that it is acceptable to wear something else, wearing black is the accepted color because its a symbol for death and for mourning and such. The attention is supposed to be on the one who died, not on the one whos wearing a big red dress to show off and divert peoples minds. Wearing anything other then black or any color stated by the deceaseds houshold people is disrespectful and doesnt go to well for you.

    No. Its disrespectful. You wear black to show you are in mourning. If someone showed up to a funeral of someone I knew I'd ask them to leave or find someone to remove them..

    *unless it means sumn special like i'm extra sad lol but I DOUBT it.

    Why should the clothing matter if you're there to pay respect to the deceased?
