When there's a black backdrop, yes. Bold bright jewel colours, red, pink, sunshine yellow, emerald green, they all look fabulous against black.
(I've got a page about this on my website:

White backgrounds are much more flexible, as they can reflect colour from the lighting, but a black costume against a black background is camouflage at its most cunning!

The other thing to watch out for is: white outfit + strong stage-lights = transparent costume if you're not careful!
