I wonder if I can claim to be the first to attend a funeral Unbifurcated. In Scotland, that could be quite common, but I may well be the first in France.
Kilted to be truthful, so no-one was surprised to see me in my usual attire - except perhaps the man who worked at the crematorium, but he was too well trained to flicker an eyelid!

First? I doubt it.
Re: First? I doubt it.
A few years ago my aunt Corrie passed away and I was not sure I should wear my Sportkilt at the funeral.
I decided not to, out of respect although there is nothing disrespectful about a kilt.
After the funeral her daughters asked me why I didn't wear my kilt................................

Re: First? I doubt it.
Until a few hundred years ago everybody did it. So no, you weren't the first.
Anyway, why would you dress any differently for a funeral than any other occasion?
And I suppose the deceased would want you to be yourself.
Unless, of course, the deceased was strongly against your skirts or kilts. In that case, you could be accused of pounding it in and/or disrespecting their memory.

Courage, conviction, nerve, verve, dash, panache, guts, nuts, balls, gall, élan, stones, whatever. Get some and get skirted.
