Most holiness churches teach that women should wear dresses only. It's based on the idea that women should not wear men clothing. The Amish probably follow Paul's teaching best. Of course, there are Amish who are proud or who like to gossip. I know quite a few Mennonite ladies who faithfully cover their hair in church but who are also very bitter and unforgiving. Can't win them all.
Here's something ironic. I like to wear dresses to work. It's so simple becaue I don't have to think about whether my outfit is coordinated. I just put on a dress and a cardigan and that's it. Then one day, I overheard someone say I only wear dresses because of my religion. Oy vey! I started to vary my wardrobe a little after that.
