    Default A man in black

    What does a man in black mean?
    Does it mean he wears black clothes? can I say a man in blue, a woman in green ...etc.
    Thanks

    Yes, it does. Have you ever watched the film Men in Black?

    Your question reminds me of an idiom: eg 'You must likely be in the pink' (very healthy). That is a bit off-topic, good to know though
