[QUOTE="VanC, post: 764103, member: 3355"] Jim, no one said that men HAVE to wear a suit to be considered well-dressed. I always wear a coat and tie to a funeral, but that's just me. To a visitation I usually wear nice dress slacks, polished dress shoes, and a shirt with a collar. If the deceased is a close family member and I'm in the receiving line I go with the suit and tie. As far as I'm concerned, nice, clean jeans and a shirt with a collar is perfectly fine. T-shirts, tanks tops, shorts, sandals, slippers, tennies, oversized Peyton Manning jerseys hanging down to your ankles (seen that recently) and similar attire are inappropriate. In my world, a funeral or visitation isn't the proper place to show off your tattoos, your nice tan, or your favorite sports team. It's good that people take the time to show up, but they should at least show the family that they care enough to take a few minutes to clean up, shave, and put on some decent clothes and shoes. That's the men. Women are a little trickier. When asked to define pornography, Justice Potter Stewart once said "I can't define it, but I know it when I see it." That's kind of the way I am about inappropriate attire for women. I do know that wearing clothes that make you look like you're trolling for men in a bar isn't the way to go, at least not in my world. Not trying to sound like the clothing police here, just giving my take on it. To each his own. [/QUOTE]
