Google "wearing black to a funeral"

Black is standard for people to wear at a funeral because it symbolizes mourning and a somber occasion. The color black also shows respect for the deceased, and wearing other colors can be a “slap in the face,” according to some religions.

However, colors like dark grey, dark blue, darker green, white, and beige can be appropriate. If you don't own any black clothing, you may always opt for a subtle hue that is appropriate for formal settings. In addition, stay away from anything with distracting patterns or prints.

Nowadays, in much of the western world, wearing black to a funeral is the most common color and is considered a sign of respect. However, the tradition actually dates back to the ancient Romans, when mourners would adopt a darker colored Toga to show they were in mourning.

As the Roman Empire spread out across Europe, they took this tradition with them, and other cultures began adopting the wearing of black clothing at funerals. During the middle ages, black mourning clothing had become a symbol of the wealthy, and this tradition spread across the Atlantic with the early American settlers.

Perhaps the most famous of all black clothing, though, was British Queen Victoria. After the death of her husband Prince Albert in 1861, she only wore black clothing for the rest of her life. This devotion to mourning her husband was seen as a symbol across the globe and became a tradition for all funeral attendees in the western world.

Everyone thinks you have to wear a black suit to a funeral. Well, you may not have a black suit if you’re a man, but you could wear [a dark suit],” Diane Gottsman, etiquette expert and owner of The Protocol School of Texas, told HuffPost, adding, “If you’re a woman, you don’t have to wear black, but wear something that’s not going to make you stand out and make you look as if you’re celebrating.

Doesn't apply to other cultures though. I think white is the color of mourning in China and purple is the color in the Philippines.
