Modestly Christian


Today I thought of writing something about "the modesty movement" in different Christian churches. Most of the evidence was found on US sites; I was curious to find European modesty sites, but so far haven't found any. I must have visited hundreds of websites, and I am too confused. Some modesty sites are "interfaith", as the point is to cover up as much skin as possible, doesn't matter if a Christian, Muslim or Jew has stitched them.

The most ladylike items were found at Lydia of Purple's site:

The so-called "cape dresses" are specially meant for homeschooling moms and daughters. There were also father-and-son pyjama sets.

Here a sample of "dress without a cape". Go and check the rest yourselves!
