A cause I'd like to get involved in...Pure Fashion

I was reading on a forum today about a clothing line called Pure Fashion. I love everything this group stands for, and really look forward to getting involved with helping them out with photography. There will be a fashion show in Fort Wayne on May 5th, but unfortunately, we'll have to miss it this year because of our moving schedule. But certainly next year, I certainly look forward to donating my time to photograph this worthwhile fashion show.

I've always been a big fan of modesty and it is so hard to find modest clothing. In fact, when Dn Gregory and I found out we were expecting our first child, we really worried about having a little girl, because it is so difficult to be modest this day and age. Its simply difficult to find appropriate clothes. Luckily, we had a little boy, so it wasn't that big of a deal. But its not just clothes for teens...even little girl clothes are all about showing the midriff and have low cut jeans. 5 year old girls do not have hips!

So, I'm very excited that I've learned about Pure Fashion. Here are some things they believe about clothing:

  1. That our private parts should remain private.
  2. That undergarments should not become outer-garments.
  3. That our bodies are holy and sacred and our clothing should not reveal what should be concealed.
  4. That virtue is the most important must have for every season.
  5. That being healthy, physically fit, clean and well groomed is always in style.
  6. That we should support retailers, designers and magazines who support virtuous behavior.
  7. That we can be pretty without being provocative.
  8. That our clothing sends a message to those around us and it should reflect our dignity as young women.
How wonderful!
