A funeral asks for quiet formality. Dark, plain, well-pressed clothes show respect, and nothing you wear should draw attention to you. Cold weather is about layers you can shed indoors: a knit under an overcoat does more for warmth and polish than one thicker piece. The men's read of this day comes down to a clean silhouette and a quiet palette; the fit does more of the talking than any single piece here.
- Choose matte fabrics and keep jewellery minimal.
- The innermost layer is the one people see; make it a good one.
- A proper collar and a leather shoe carry more formality than any label will.
