What does the Bible say about women dressing?

Answer 1

1 Timothy 2: 9, 10 I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.

Isaiah 47 speaks of exposed legs/thigh as being naked, this as shame being uncovered.

1 Peter 3:3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.

Deuteronomy 22:5 A woman must not wear men's clothing, nor a man wear women's clothing, for the LORD your God detests anyone who does this.

a selection from "the weak and the strong" section of Romans (ch. 14, v. 19-21): Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification. Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble. It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother or sister to fall.

In other words, what you say and do effects others.

Matthew 5:28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

If what you do or say or wear causes a man (or someone else) to sin, you have also sinned because you have harmed your neighbor.

Answer 2

Answer # 1

Biblical text does not refer to a woman's dress, it refers to a woman's skirt.

Discovering someone else's skirt (uncovering the skirt) is referring to a sexual act of uncovering the skirt of a woman.

You will find it referred to in

Deuteronomy 22:30, 27:20

You may also be looking for Deuteronomy 22:5 where it states a woman shall not wear that which pertaineth to a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment, for all that do are an abomination unto the Lord thy God.

This verse is referring to a woman taking the place of a man in a sexual act and a man taking the place of a woman in a sexual act, its perversion and an abomination.

They shouldn't wear men's clothing. However, it doesn't say what men's clothing is.
