Most Mennonites dress in very simple clothing -some with no patterns or bright colors- to avoid drawing attention to themselves in an act of humility and also in obedience to the directions in The Bible ,for example in 1 Peter3:3-4.as a symbolic and usually genuine desire to mark the difference between living for God & the way people naturally want to go - ie,following fashion trends etc.
Not all Mennonites have a particular dress style now,with only the conservative groups still adhering to modest dress styles,which cover the body,as a gesture of respect for others,and as a response to the Biblical principles of covering the body(1 Timothy & many references through both Old & New Testaments.
