Black dress for funeral

Dress to wear to funeral. I want something with at least elbow length sleeves and no shorter than a couple inches above the knees. Also want something that isn’t low cut/doesn’t show any cleavage (I’m busty) and is not right fitting/form fitting. Funeral is down south in mid May so it’ll be hot but we’ll be mostly inside an air conditioned church.
Any recommendations? I’ve been looking online and can’t find much…most are either more cocktail dresses and show too much skin or else are too casual looking. Thanks |

This is a terrible suggestion for a funeral dress. It is a black lace cocktail dress. SMH. |

DP. But what’s wrong with that? |

What is wrong is you do not wear cocktail dresses to funerals unless you're celebrating the person's death, in which case, don't go. |

These are good. I do agree the lace sleeved dress isn’t quite right bc it’s a party dress. I’ve also found people tend to dress very casually at funerals. Jeans, non-dark colors etc. So it may depend on the group attending on how fancy you need to be. |

| Why not a black suit with pants/skirt or suit dress? |

This will probably be on the more formal side which is why I’m having trouble. I have a more casual black dress I typically wear to funerals. Thanks for the suggestions everyone! |

This is something I would purchase but I’m not sure of your vibe. I would wear it with flats.

My older family members wear black veils for funerals though I do not. But would still feel comfortable veiling in this. |

Is this too much of a “party dress”?
