Well not to be too pedantic, bishops seldom wear black. The episcopal colour is green; their cassocks ( generally ) are purple; they wear vestments of the colour of the day/season which may be white, red, green, violet, rose...or black.

Maybe there are bishops somewhere who wear black, but I really can't agree that "bishops wear black." They only do so when celebrating masses of the dead and on Good Friday ( if they follow the older uses ).
