Quakers have always set store by leading plain and sober lives - and this has traditionally included dress.
Rarely. Plain dress is uncommon among Quakers these days. It mostly went out over 100 years ago. Of the few Quakers who dress plainly, some may buy some of their patterns, clothing, bonnets, hats, and coverings from Amish merchants, but they might equally buy them from Mennonite, Brethren, or other Quaker merchants. Or they might just make it themselves.

Some American religions that dress in 1800s clothing include the Amish, Mennonites, Quakers, Shakers, and some fundamentalist Mormon sects. These groups adhere to traditional dress as a way of living out their religious beliefs and maintaining a connection to their historical roots.
WHAT ARE THE QUAKERS HOLiDAYS?
the quakers.
No Quakers don't take communion.
No, there is no dress code for Quakers. However, some Quakers, particularly conservative Friends, find a spiritual calling to "plain dressing". One of the Quaker testimonies is Simplicity. Each Quaker, lead by the inner light, responds to this testimony in different ways. Some Quakers feel it is their leading to dress plain, that is a dress similar to Amish or Mennonites. Others feel that plain dressing is just a call to dress modestly but can wear "modern" clothes. Others feel they can still respond to the testimony of simplicity and wear modern clothes, jewelry and make up. The important thing for each Quaker is to listen to the inner light and discern how each individual person is being called to best live their life with God.
