"you know as well as I do that dress for any occasion, including formal ones like this, is not as it was years ago - why are you asking about it?"
You have already said that fashion evolves. That means someone has to be involved in changing what they or others wear.
Men used to wear top hats but that fashion died out. There must have been some point when someone broke with tradition and stopped wearing one and it increased from there.
Why then, can Corbyn not be that one man bucking the trend? Was every man and woman in the procession that followed, dressed in black?

The answer to the first point is very simple - yes, fashions do evolve, and it can start with one person bucking the trend, which is how it should be.
But the person bucking the trend should not be a major politician using this occasion as his platform for trend-bucking, for one very simple reason - it does not afford him the respect of the nation for being a maverick and having the strength of his convictions, it makes him look like a selfish attention-seeking disrespectful plonker.
Bucking trends is wonderful - picking your time and place, is even more so, and this was neither.
I have not watched film of the ceremony, and of course, not everyone who followed the procession may have worn black - but I am willing to wager that every major public figure with the exception of Mr Corbyn did so - feel free to prove me wrong, and I am one hundred per cent certain that any who did not wear black will be a very small minority, and I can be assured of that without seeing the film - because that is how things are done.

THECORBYLOON, //Was every man and woman in the procession that followed, dressed in black? //
That's irrelevant. Corbyn is a public figure not one among thousands, and he was at the forefront of the line-up. For him the day was all about him and putting on a show to let us all know what a rebel he is. He has nothing to be proud of. He's a disgrace.

Corby - // He was disrespectful but others in the procession dressed in a similar manner would not have been? //
It is most unlike you to carry on a point purely for the sake of mischief, as you appear to be doing here.
As Naomi has pointed out, any member of the public is under no obligation to dress in an accepted format - so it doesn;t matter what anyone else in the procession was wearing.
What does matter - as Naomi has pointed out - is the attire of the public figures at the front of the procession, and again without seeing the film, I am happy to bet that every single major politician in that procession, with the exception of Mr Corbyn, wore black.
