"The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." Deuteronomy 22:5
In like manner also, that women adorn
themselves in modest apparel, with
shamefacedness and sobriety; not with
broided hair, or gold or pearls, or costly array;
but (which becometh women professing godliness)
with good works.
1 Timothy 2.9-10
Greetings! My Name is Sandra, I was born and raised in Beautiful Lancaster, Pa. County. Dutch Country, where I get to enjoy all four seasons of the year. There are Amish, Mennonite's, Farms, Many Farm Animals, and Horse and Buggies Everywhere.
I have been married to a God Sent Man for 20 years. He is my best friend. We had two son's together. One is 18 years old, and the other is 5 years in heaven at the age of 17.
We have two pet cats that are outside animals. We enjoy going to the public auctions, mudd sales, dancing and riding motorcycle.
I started selling online, on eBay 5 year ago. Selling any and everything in the house. Until God put Amish and Mennonite Dresses into my life. That is mainly all I sell today.
The best part of my job, is knowing that I am doing work that pleases God. Selling to women around the world Modesty Dresses. .
Blessings,
Sandra

The Old Order Amish and Mennonite Women have been wearing these types of dresses dating back to the 1800'S
Both the Amish and Mennonite Dresses come in many styles, colors, designs and sizes.
Some of the dresses have pin on capes, with half aprons, and some have a pinafore apron that ties in the back.
Pinafore: A dress length sleeveless apron that is worn over the dress, and ties in the back. It is separate from the dress.
The Old Order Amish Women From Pennsylvania: Have open capes that pin together in the front to form a V. The apron goes over the pinned cape area, and pins to the back of the dress.
Please see the pictures, I'm showing a reversable cape, and how they pin it into a V in the first picture. In the second picture I'm showing you how to pin the apron on .
Some of the capes go to a point in the back and some in a square. Some are reversable.
The Women's Menonite Cape Dresses From Lancaster, Pa.: Conceals the figure better than a regular dress and is the most modest dress to be found.
