Vestments, of any color, are only worn by priests. Altar servers usually wear either an alb or a cassock and surplice - NONE of which are considered "vestments". An altar server's alb is usually white, his cassock may be black or red. Black vestments are optional for funeral Masses for a priest, red vestments are for feasts of martyrs, the Holy Spirit, and Good Friday, and white vestments are for saints who are not martyred, feasts of Our Blessed Lord, the Trinity, and God the Father.
