WHY BLACK IN COLOUR?

WHY NECK BANDS?

  • The Black colour was chosen because of two reasons.
  • Firstly, colours and dyes were not readily available back then. Purple signified royalty and thus, the only abundant fabric colour left was black.
  • Main reason behind wearing a 'Black Coat' is because black is the colour of authority and power.
  • Black represents submission of oneself.
  • Just like Priests wear Black to show their submission to God, Lawyers wear black to show their submission to Justice.
