Wearing black to church on Good Friday is not a universal or standardized practice. The customs and traditions related to attire during Good Friday can vary depending on cultural, religious, and regional factors.
In some Christian traditions, wearing black or dark-colored clothing on Good Friday is considered a sign of mourning and reflection, as it commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It may symbolize the darkness and sorrow associated with this solemn day in the Christian calendar.
However, in other Christian denominations and regions, wearing black or dark-colored clothing on Good Friday may not be a common practice. Some churches or individuals may choose to wear somber colors, such as dark purple or dark blue, as a sign of reflection and reverence during Good Friday services.
It's important to note that customs and practices related to attire on Good Friday can vary widely among different Christian denominations, cultural traditions, and individual preferences. If you are attending a church service on Good Friday, it's advisable to check the customs and traditions of that particular church or denomination to understand their practices regarding attire during this solemn occasion.

What color clothing should be worn to a Lutheran Church on Palm Sunday?
Shortly said: any.Traditionally, black is a colour for grievance, and that--along with repentance--is what Holy Week is about.It really depends on what church you're attending. Generally--that is, I've never heard of a 'colour-clothing-code' for any church visitor--it's up to the visitors to dress in whatever colour of their preference: modesty is the rule (no too-revealing clothes, basically.) You don't have to wear a dress or a suit unless you want to! There's NO need to wear black clothes, not even on Good Friday (although black clothing is widely preferred by many Christians on Good Friday, including myself). As a matter of fact, I've seen a minister in my Evangelical-Lutheran Church dressed in a dark-red jumper on two Good Friday services while she (obviously) wasn't on duty, instead coming as a visitor, so it's up to everyone to decide.However, seeing as it's Lent and the first day of Holy Week, I wouldn't dress too festively either. But, if you turn up not wearing black on either day while most people do, don't feel uncomfortable. And if you want to, go dressed in black both days! It's not an offence to wear or not to wear black on Good Friday or any other day! (Although, I'd refrain from wearing only black on Easter Sunday and Christmas Day due to their nature.) Modesty is the key, then you can wear whatever colour you like--even white (I've seen it worn in church on Good Friday and no one seemed to mind)!To summarize: I'd be very surprised if people took offence as long as you're modestly dressed.The minister and the Altar will probably be dressed in purple on Palm Sunday. The minister may wear a black (or perhaps purple) stole on Good Friday; the Altar will either be dressed in black or completely bare.

What color is associated with Good Friday?
In the Catholic Church, and in Protestant Churches that derive their rituals from the Catholic Church, paraments are not used at all on Good Friday. A parament, which is sometimes called an antependium, is the relatively heavily decorated hanging or tapestry for the front of the altar table. It conceals the front of the altar from the top to the floor, and from the left edge to the right edge. A parament is optional, unlike the mandatory altar cloth or cloths that cover the top surface. If used, paraments should match the liturgical color of the priest's vestments, and this would suggest that the parament should match the black or red vestments worn by the priest on Good Friday, however paraments should not be used on Good Friday. The altars are completely stripped after the Mass of the Last Supper, on the evening of Holy Thursday. The altar remains bare for most of the Good Friday afternoon service. At the end of the Good Friday service, before Holy Communion is to be distributed, a single, plain, usually white altar cloth is spread on the top of the altar table. The decorative parament or antependium is not permitted or used. Indeed, the only cloths used at the altar at this point are the single altar cloth, and a corporal about eighteen inches square, upon which the ciborium containing the Eucharist is placed.
