This is one of the scenes that hit me the hardest every time I see it because my attention immediately focuses on Aunt Cass and here's why.
Everyone pretty much stuck to their individual fashion styles. Fred has his laid-back style, Wasabi kept his clean cut look, Honey Lemon has her knee length dress and tights, and GoGo still looks like she can kick some butt in what looks like a jacket plus pants combo.
Aunt Cass doesn’t though. She has a dress on.
She always wore jeans and a simple t-shirt combo. Granted most funerals you dress up in, but I would imagine her in a black business like suit outfit or some black slacks and a long sleeve shirt. A dress doesn’t fit her personality in my opinion.
There’s a part of me that thinks she wore this particular outfit in honor of Tadashi. His style was comfortable yet clean and kind of formal. That is what the dress is to me.
I think that for her, dressing similar to his style on the day of his funeral, was a way for her to show her love for Tadashi because she realized she didn’t give him one true last hug.
