Since the Bible doesn't really speak to the issue, I'd think that the same "rules" for dress in "everyday life" would apply to corporate worship. Rules like . . .

1) Does it fit?
2) Is it clean?
3) Is it modest . . .
- in the "doesn't show too much skin" sense?
- in the "doesn't show off your wealth" sense?
4) Is it culturally appropriate?
- In other words, what's the general tone of attire in the church? If everyone else is in a suit, then err toward the side of formal dress. If everyone else is in jeans and tees, then err toward the side of more "casual" dress.

Thoughts?
