When choosing an outfit at important moments, emphasis is placed on the right taste and respect. And the funeral is certainly no exception. But did you know that sunglasses should you rather leave at home for such an event?
The funeral is one of those events that require our respect. The choice of clothing, whether for a close family or guests, is therefore very important, because every detail can express our respect for the deceased and his family. In this respect, it is necessary to choose clothing that corresponds to the seriousness of the moment and avoid everything that could look inappropriate or disrespectful. Although it may seem to us that sunglasses are part of a common part of everyday outfit, avoid them at the funeral. The funeral is when we should be fully present and focus on the dignity of the moment and the sunglasses could really look inappropriate.

Why not wear sunglasses to funeral
Sunglasses on the funeral can act inappropriately for several reasons. The first and most important thing is that they can disrupt the atmosphere of respect and seriousness associated with this event. The funeral is a moment of silence, reflection and memories, where everyone should be present not only physically but also mentally. Wearing sunglasses can give the impression that one avoids direct contact with others, which is very inappropriate for such an event. They can act as a barrier between you and others, which is not in line with respect that should be placed first.
Another reason why sunglasses on the funeral are not suitable is their effect on perception and photography. If you come to the funeral with glasses, you can stay invisible in images that will capture this important event. Funerals are often documented by photographs that should capture the presence and emotions of the present, not just someone hiding behind dark glass.
What else do not wear on the funeral
In addition to sunglasses, there is also too much to reveal clothing at the funeral that could look very disrespectful. Also sports shoes, such as sneakers or flip flops, have no place in the funeral. Instead, you should choose dark, subtle clothes that correspond to the seriousness of the moment. Printed T -shirts, jeans, colored ties or caps are other pieces that are not suitable for funeral. To do this, you should limit the amount of jewelry to keep your appearance as moderate as possible.
Remember, if you don’t really have any serious health reason to put on the funeral glasses, avoid an arc. Your eyes are the gateway to the soul, and although the situation can cause tears, these tears are a manifestation of sincerity and love.
