Girls Modest Clothing Can Be Fashionable

Girls Modest Clothing

The Talmud teaches Orthodox Jews to wear modest Tznius clothing. Yet girls, teens, and tweens, want to be fashionable and they want their clothing to be an expression of themselves. But modest clothing for girls doesn't have to mean boring clothing. Girls can still express their personalities in their clothing choices.

Girls who are Orthodox Jews, will typically wear sleeves that cover the elbow and skirts that cover the knees. Slits in skirts can be problematic, so you will more often see kick pleats.
