We need something, not too complicated, for a Barbershop chorus member costume to go with the song, Goodbye Old Dixie. Each member will probably wear a different costume having to do with a waterfront scene.

Sounds like they don't have to be gentlemen of the era, which makes it much easier.  \n\nGentlemen of the era typically wore a frock suit and short top hat in conservative colors.  You might be able to rent something like that from a local costume rental business.  \n\n"Newsboy" style caps are very good for working class men of many eras.  Henley shirts or collarless dress shirts (i.e. shirts with the neckband for a fold over collar like a modern dress shirt but without the folding over collar part) are both good shirt looks.  Dungaree style pants have been around for a long time, though maybe not quite as long as the 1850's-- they still have a good period feel, though, so they're worth considering.  Carrharts and Lees both make dungaree styles you can buy at Sears.  Pants of this period should come higher on the waist than most men like these days-- they should really be up around the belly button.  Suspenders are entirely appropriate to help with this provided that they are the button on variety and not the clip on kind.  Belts would be inappropriate.  Pants would be straight legged or slightly tapered, in conservative colors, and probably made of wool or a sturdy cotton.  They would never have a cuffed hem.

I would suggest something like a friend of mine used for her beach wedding. She used the instrumental version of "Kiss the girl" from the little mermaid for her bridesmaids walk down the aisle.\n\nShe then had someone play the steel drums as she walked down the aisle to the wedding song from "Blue Hawaii"...It was beautiful!!

First thing I think of is punk rock.\n\nI guess I'm picturing no hair and a leather jacket.  I don't know if that's what you guys still wear--I'm a child of the '80s.

Four of us at work decided to dress as KISS at work. I was paul Stanley complete with the make up, wig and his famous kissing pout. \n\nWe were in black leather.......head to toe......and looked as outlandish as you can get. This doesn't sound too weird until you realize that we all teach at an Elementary School. These kids didn't have a clue who KISS was..........they were scared to death of us! lol yes, i have pictures!! Will show you.......but it will cost you. lol

Depending on your style, you could go for the traditional white shirt black tie but since Opera is a thing of art why not wear some colour.  Think of a colour that you usually get compliments with....if your eyes are blue...blue is great.  even wearing a suit with a really nice t-shirt and perhaps a scarf is quite nice. have fun.

Are we talking funeral party song for a Human or an Animal? ;-)\n\nAny Hee-Haw tune would good great for an Animal Funeral\n\nFor a Human funeral I would recommend either Mozart's Requiem or How Deep Is Your Love.\n\nOr is it the other way around - are we serving soft drinks only, or alcoholic beverages too?  ;-)

If your choir has a uniform, that would be appropriate, plus women should wear some type of head covering. Perhaps you could get uniform head coverings...such as light wt. vales or hats. If no uniforms wear Conservative clothing,comfortable , light wt. fabric.  Cover arms
