An Italian American (Italian: italoamericano singular, Italian: italoamericani plural) is an American of Italian ancestry, and/or may also refer to someone possessing Italian/American dual citizenship. Italian Americans are the fourth largest European ethnic group in the United States.

About 5 million immigrated to the U.S. The greatest surge of immigration, 1880–1914, brought 4 million Italians to cities in the Northeast, where most began as unskilled laborers. Italian Americans have moved from the bottom of the economic scale (in 1910) to the upper half by 1970. They have tended strongly to emphasize the family, the Church, fraternal societies, and politics.

What colors am I allowed to wear to an American-Italian wedding?
Q. What colors am I allowed to wear to an American-Italian wedding? Like what colors are appropriate for a teenage girl to wear? Is black allowed? Light/Pastel colors? The wedding's going to be held in a church so please help. Thanks!

A. Find out what the color motif (scheme) is for the wedding. You can choose something in one of those colors or a similar color. Black is fine if it's an evening wedding, and/or if the colors the couple has chosen are dark. If they've chosen pastels, you don't want to wear black because you will stick out like a sore thumb.
