  So sorry again for your loss and yes, I believe it is absolutely appropriate! Especially with the mentioned accessories. This time of year I would wear dark pantyhose as well

  I usually go with anything dark to these things. Black isn't mandatory. ((hugs)) I think that dress will be just fine for the occasion. I have a dark grey dress I wear to things like this.

  Firstly, I am so sorry you lost your grandfather. 
  
  I think that dress looks wonderful. The only concern I would have is the length. But not knowing how tall/leggy you are, and being a bad judge from looking at it only on the hangar, I think it looks appropriate. I think what is more important than the color is if it is respectable, and that looks respectable.

  
  

  I recently went to a memorial service and was shocked at what some people wore. Skin tight dresses, one woman had on a bright pink dress that barely covered her hoo-ha. I'm not sure how she was able to sit down in it!

  Well, here we get a LOT of people who show up to funerals (and also weddings) in blue jeans, tshirts, or even shorts. It's actually considered ok to most here. However I am not one of them. I generally wear a navy blue dress, or a simple black skirt and shirt to funerals so i think your dress is very appropriate. I'm sorry about your grandfather. ((Hugs))

  Thanks everyone. I bought the dress and then started second guessing myself. As for the length, it hits about 1-2 in. above my knee. It was a lot harder to find an appropriate black dress than I thought it would be.

  I think your dress is definitely appropriate, especially since you are going to wear a black sweater over it.  I always wear dark colors if I don't have any black options.
