The hat; the shirt; the Jacket; even the trousers are all unisex garments. The distinguishing factor is the cut of the garment. The shirt becomes a blouse. The others become obviously 'feminine' or 'masculine'. Most women wear a jacket for Church which is distinctly female. Interestingly some women are anti-pants, yet the same distinguishing factor can obviously be applied to trousers. A man wouldn’t wear a feminine hat, or blouse or ladies trousers (or a dress).In the Bible we know that men wore robes but distinguishable from female attire.
Today I would look silly if I dressed like either John the Baptist or the Puritans and strolled down the high street, so culture is relevant. We know C H Spurgeon or a ‘modern man in a suit and tie’ would also look very peculiar if time travelled back to the NT times.
Modesty of course is the priority, taking care not to follow what can be obvious sinful cultural fashions of this world, often by homosexual designers.
For those who insist men must wear a suit and tie, do we realise wear the neck tie originated? The Bible?
Where did the necktie originate and what is its purpose?
