For Orthodox Christmas, women wear modest, respectful attire like ** dresses or skirts (knee-length or longer) with sleeves**, higher necklines, and covered shoulders, often in festive but subdued colors like white, gold, or jewel tones, with a shawl or cardigan for extra coverage, prioritizing comfort and reverence over fashion trends, and sometimes a headscarf. Think elegant but understated—focus on modesty, not drawing attention away from the service.
Key Elements of an Orthodox Christmas Outfit:
Modesty is Key: Avoid low-cut tops, sleeveless shirts (wear a cardigan/shawl over), short skirts, or skin-tight clothing.
Dresses & Skirts: Opt for midi or maxi lengths, covering the knees.
