There are still restrictions today. As a woman, you're not allowed to enter a church with your shoulders unclothed (that's why many brides wear an extra little jacket when they get married in a church) and pants/skirts/dresses must at least cover the knees.
Really? I’ve seen many brides get married in church with a strapless dress and a sweetheart neckline! Perhaps it depends on the church. Also saw many guests with shoulders exposed too.
There's probably a difference. I'm talking from a European perspective :)
Could be. I’m in the U.K. I don’t really follow religion so I go to church for weddings and funerals. Certainly at our local church I’ve seen a few brides and guests with their shoulders bare. I’m not a fan but that’s my personal preference. I don’t think I would go into church with bare shoulders but that’s because my mum always told me I shouldn’t. (Same when I got married)
