I wonder if the underlayer is something they don't give thought to because they're already wearing the special garments underneath.
Ha, the modesty dress code reminded me of my former LDS library boss in Nevada who made several odd passive aggressive comments about other similar denominations in terms of dressing that way. Like he had a long running feud with the head copy cataloger, which I'm sure was in part because she was a 7th Day Adventist. But he used to call her a priss who dressed like Holly Hobby (and this is the same man who always bragged about his wife's scrapbooking hobby). Or the time I told him about getting stared at during an entire cross country flight to New York by a pair of Mennonite teenagers and he made this really nasty comment about how their whole dress code was going overboard to prove that they were more virtuous than anybody else (I preferred Mr Waxfruit's comment once I landed in New York that the teens were probably coveting the buttons on my clothes).
