Church DressesChurch is sacred place where we worship the Lord Jesus. It is where Christians would perform their spiritual and religious activities. The church is a holy place which means that it needs to be respected and devotion is much needed. Going to church means that we are communicating with God through our words, actions and the dresses that we wear inside the church. The things that we do inside the church along with the words and the dress reflects our etiquette and manners thus we need to present it in a respectful way when inside the church.

Dressing to church doesn’t mean that you have to have those laces all around your neck as a fashion statement. You can look elegant even with just simple clothing. In the modern world of fashion, there are several dresses that are now the statement of church dresses. Wearing a simple and modest clothes are required no matter what color it is. 

Men can wear formal shirts and pants while women on the other hand have a lot of options to choose from. Skirts and tops are the best option for a normal church ceremony. Wedding ceremonies that are held in a church may require you to go in a long dress for formality. 

Avoid wearing clothes that are too revealing and those that can imply indecency such as mini skirts, skin tight jeans and tank tops. During the summer, cotton is preferred by many in order to have a more comfortable feeling inside the church.

White is the recommended color by the church as it implies simplicity, elegance and purity. Accessories can also be used such as jewelry, hats and shoes. Other still prefer to wear the vintage dresses for a more vintage and formal look.

Church wear to be refrained from would be be a few items of clothing that can generally be at arm’s length or in other words, be at a distance from what can ideally be the attire for wearing to church. The church wear to be avoided majorly would be dresses that are short or skirts that are short in terms of length. These are two aspects of dressing that do not fit or figure in church wear or church attire.

Make Up There are also other elements of clothing that do not fit in the whole scheme of attire and clothes which are considered apt for church wear or church going attendance. Clothes, such as or like torn jeans and the whole new gen cool age or cool look can be avoided whilst attending time at church. Church requires or is suited with colours that are well aquatinted to attendance at church. For instance, colours that are subtle are ideal for wearing to church as opposed to wearing and sporting colours that are loud or brighter and catching the eye. Colours such as whites and peaches are light and are good to wear for church. The colours such as pinks and beiges, or the variations of the same are nice as well to be worn for church. Clothes that are funky in nature, such as coloured denims or shorts that are in multi or dark shadings and colours are to be completely avoided in general.

Make up in shades that are dark or bright blush shades can also be refrained from. Colours such as bright mauves and purples are to be avoided, whether this colour and its variations are considered for clothes or then, make up even. The bottom line remains that it is essential to have a balance in the whole look, and no extreme measures would suit the church. For instance, if someone came to church in a white dress, but with excessive frills and lace, and with colours that are bright as make up or in other words, make up that is not subtle, then, thought the dress or attire is in a light colour, the point to be noted is that the makeup brings about a dis or a miss in the balance and this is avoidable for church going or church attendance at any point.

Church is a place for contemplation and should carry the highest mark of respect. Dressing is very important aspect of an individual. Careless dressing is often related to low self esteem and also gives a signal that you do not respect the occasion. Hence one needs to dress up well for oneself and by habit this can develop into a need. Splurging on clothes is not recommended as there are sale buys to fill your wardrobe for those exclusive clothes you need for church attending.

Weddings are great times and as the bride proceeds towards the alter this becomes an emotional time for all the invitees. Dresses for wedding are exquisite, in pearly whites, sashes, bows, head pieces, tiara and the get up seems complete with bouquet, rings and also make up.

The brides make up needs has to reflect elegance which is so much required as a church etiquette. One does opt for second buys or hire dresses for weddings but one needs to check for frays and bad laundry jobs. Neat dressing is recommended for these special occasions.

Many feats like christening is also when one must dress the kids appropriately in the christening gown which is not always a white. There are angelic dresses and props too but for the occasion it is safe to use a button down or Velcro arrangement which allows easy anointment during baptism. Change of clothes and shoes is very much important for kids and one should not forget the weather while making the baby kit.

Speaking is not allowed and when absolutely necessary one can communicate non verbally. Footwear should be best and branded buys are not necessary. Watch out for bad grooming and this is not acceptable. There could be times when one needs to pull in the grubby jeans and the sweat shirt but then formal dressing would be advisable. Go for business casuals that come with bright formal shirts and trousers.

If you are the flamboyant dresser, then be careful with colours and prints. Animal prints, loud stripes or an array of colours look good on the beach or carnival and hence to avoid embarrassment get into a few church wearable.

Dangling earrings, chunky jewelry, too much of beads or pearls looks very loud for a church function. Go for dress suits or pant suits and the best way to bring variety is to mix n match. Go for tones like browns, creams, blues and peach. For someone who loves colours then a fuchsia camisole, a inner olive green tank top and shrugs in colours seem to be a good idea.

Make up has to be immaculate and neat. Hairstyles can be simple and one could always sport the shag layered blow dry style for the party after the church ceremony.
