Red is not a problem anymore , I have seen plenty of red colored shirts in Chiang Mai . Or any color you want .  As long you're not working here. 

Working where?

ANY TIME you please, starting from day 1...

Come on folks!  How difficult is it to wear a black shirt. Think of it as a plus to show respect to a visiting country. It will be easy to pack 3 or 4 black shirts/shorts/blouse. Don't have to worry about coordinating colors, etc. Show some respect for crying out loud! For myself, I am going back to Bangkok next month after having lived there for 3 years on retirement extension. and packing essentially what I described above. I have 2 pairs of black Levis, shorts, and 3 shirts. 

Ridiculous...

What nonsense. There is absolutely nothing disrespectful about not wearing black, now the official mourning period is over and a new King has ascended.

 

Agreed, but there was nothing disrespectful about wearing other than black PERIOD. It's clothing...nothing more. 

I am not Thai, and as a result I do not engage in mourning their recent loss, anymore than I would engage in mourning the death of someone close to a friend or family member. I do not wai portraits in front of stores, nor do I wear a black ribbon. I wore black or dark colors for the thirty day period because it was mandated by the government, which, in itself is an interesting concept and comment on Thailand's individual freedoms. I do offer my respect, good thoughts and condolences to friends and family members as they grieve over their loss. If I was a religious man I would offer my prayers as well.

Agreed! EXCEPT for the fact that no non Thai person was required to wear black...nor were most Thais. I did not wear black anything during the 30 day mourning period, other than that which I would have worn anyway which is about twice a week.

No disrespect, as ones wardrobe is not how respect is shown, but how one conducts oneself with actions, manners and words.

" . .  grey is the color most commonly associated with neutrality, conformity, boredom, uncertainty, old age, indifference, and modesty."- Wikipedia.

 

So which is it in your case?

I see "available laundered attire" is not on the list so, I'll go with indifference and old age.

well, they have a saying black goes with everything. and it never goes out of fashion. as long as you're not going with "radiating" colors, you won't be noticed.
