The problem with women in their 50's and older wearing those fashions is that they are a bad example to the younger girls. What are they going to tell a pretty young girl like Marilyn Monroe when she wears the same thing?
Keep in mind that I am only talking here about one fashion the women (young and older) wear at my SSPX chapel, that fashion is minor compared to others and how they dress outside in the world all week, for the parents under 50, wear short shorts, legging as outside underwear, tight jeans, exposed belly, tank tops ........
To make a point hereI brought this tight sweater talk here because I think there is hope of convincing the women over 50 of changing this habit. These women I speak of do cover themselves and dress properly for mass except for this fashion, which they sometimes partially cover with a cardigan. Catholic women need to realize that how they dress is an example to others. They should think, what would my husband think of an attractive 23 year old girl wearing what I am wearing?
