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 here

I 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?

What is it with all these pregnant women in bikini showing off their pregnant bellies in social media...?
Just another sign that Hollywood and the world are insane.

This is what I meant by 'womens league' which does not exist in most chapels i've been to.  Also, when should the priest address such a question - in the 5 minutes he has between confessions and the start of mass?  I'm not suggesting that random men go correcting such ladies, but that they should be corrected and advised of the dress code policy by the ushers.  And if not, then Fathers of families can go get an older lady to discuss the topic.  I think we somewhat agree, except you are presuming that there's an organized group of ladies that watch/handle such things.  I've never seen this type of thing in existence, that's my point.
What part of "women of the parish" even hints that it is an organization?  Stop accusing me of "presuming that there's an organized group of ladies".
So you advise that male ushers (strangers) approach a woman in a tight top and advise her of a dress code policy?  I can just imagine the fallout from that.  Here you are presuming that just because he's an usher he would know how to handle this type of situation or are you presuming that because he's male he's all capable?

Yes, our ushers are the ones responsible for enforcing the dress code and have been doing so for 40 yrs.  I'm not saying that women shouldn't help either, but if it's not an organized effort, then one is just "hoping" it'll happen.  A hope is not a solution to the problem.
