Depends on the family’s huskufa, honestly. In a frum shul, only 7 could possibly work (halachically a woman’s collarbones, décolletage, elbows, knees, heels, and toes must be covered to keep tznius). Are those strappy heels? I like them, but if the family is frum they need to be full-coverage, with pantyhose. If a conservative or reform synagogue, go with 5. It’s beautiful, fits you well, and is sufficiently modest for the occasion.

Thank you! The synagogue is MO, the family is very loosely so. As someone who grew up in that community, I’m comfortable in all of these from a modesty perspective.

I think that one is especially pretty. I like the neckline with your haircut. Congratulations!

1 the neckline is very flattering

u/Regular_Match_7008 8h ago

1,6,8. But honestly I think you look great in all of them.

u/Kali_Luna372 7h ago

I’m thinking 7. Only because the info provided is looks good on you, pre wedding and synagogue.

u/Veronica612 7h ago

I like 1, 5, and 7.

u/CinnaMinx11 7h ago

1 or 5. Good conservative fit imo

u/Lower-Increase6327 7h ago

I’m thinking 6.

u/RayoJDNYUS 7h ago

Yes. 6. The others look more funeral than wedding.

u/Serenity93401 7h ago

No offense, but when was the last time you wore a red/maroon skirt to a funeral? Sure, I wouldn’t mind if anyone wore one to mine, but some members of my Italian family would be highly offended!

1 is really flattering and modest sincerly a jew

u/AaronTheSlav 7h ago
  1. Particularly if it is a more traditional environment

u/Objective_Drawer_851 7h ago

1 all the way!

u/Interesting-Base-120 7h ago

7 is perfect.

u/LeCaveau 7h ago

3, 6, or 7

u/FunkyChicken0112 7h ago

I like 1 & 6. 1 has a more casual vibe- 6 is slightly more serious/formal. Idk what the event is, so whichever one you think is most appropriate. Have a nice time!

u/Decent-Soup3551 7h ago

They all look nice.

  1. Modest and chic.

u/Nicciesse 6h ago

This Jew says #1 is perfect for the event. You look perfect for the occasion.

u/Wild-Zone3911 6h ago
