    • That is an American thing. Most likely, because of the country's Puritan roots.

    What does this Amish attire look like that  "a lot" trads wear at the SSPX chapel that you go to? Some pictures. Are they young people boys and girls or the elderly, or everybody?

    • Either you have no idea what Amish clothing looks like, or you don't attend an SSPX chapel.

    I second that!
    Our sspx looks more like Fri night at the bar.
    Right, I've seen casual at various chapels.  Friday night at the bar, you have got to be kidding me.  Over-exaggerating and over-zealous. #Amishlife

    • Maybe OP meant to say ‘prairie’ instead of ‘Amish’. Some trad women dress in old fashioned prairie dresses, it’s the closest thing to Amish I can think of.

    • One thing about the Amish women and girls is that the sneakers with the dress is not very feminine. Ick.  There are many comfortable Maryjanes or boots that are girly. 

    I like the Menonnite dresses better.

    I have not seen that at SSPX's parishes and I am in St. Marys, and have been to Winnoa, Post Falls and various California parishes. Each parish you will see dresses and styles of various kinds and sizes (and none Amish), unfortunately it tends to mostly short and tight.

    Probably because this is the United States, and not Europe or South America. Prairie clothing has somewhat of a history here. I happen to like prairie clothing, even though I've never worn it.
    There are a couple of women who wear prairie clothing at the SSPX chapel here. I think it looks quite nice.

    • You can be contemporary yet modest.  I think those who dress "old fashioned" are just trying to call attention to themselves.  "Look at me, I hope you will think I am holy because I eschew contemporary clothing".
