Places of worship vary widely, so match the room. As a rule, quiet, modest, well-pressed clothes are always safe. Cold weather is about layers you can shed indoors: a knit under an overcoat does more for warmth and polish than one thicker piece. Read the room before you read your wardrobe: the same day can want a sharper or a softer answer depending on who you are seeing, and the middle is usually the safer place to land.
- Check the custom: shoes off, shoulders covered, or a head covering.
- The innermost layer is the one people see; make it a good one.
- Pick the palette before the pieces. Two neutrals and one accent rarely fails.
