In my opinion––and you WILL get a stream of posts (although not from Emily
Post, her heirs or assigns; nor, for that matter, from Miss Manners)
strenuously disagreeing with me on this point––you may wear them at funerals
and other circumstances in which you may wish to indicate you are in mourning.

When you are in the Mafia ;o)
When you become an undertaker.
When you put on a stovepipe hat and a goatee.

Black is wonderful in men's suits. They are good for daywear and evening. Wear
it with a white on white shirt and a very colorful tie – perhaps something from
Nicole Miller.
A tie with an intense red goes especially well.
If you wish a little different look, wear it with a black shirt. Again the tie
is very important.
And, if you really wish to make a statement, with a hat.

I think a black suit is suitable anytime! My husband has one that looks
dressier with a white shirt and tie and more casual with a colored shirt.

Audrey,
What's the point of being hidebound, reactionary and
archconservative–to–the–bone if I can't hold fast to ancient and out of fashion
views? :–)

disagree. To my eye, the black suit is comparable to the charcoal or navy
suit, and the cut and particular fabric will have more to do with its
appropriateness than the color.
And, of course, I am fond of my black sharkskin suit. I like to think of it
as what a tasteful gangster might wear.
