I remember in the 1960's and 1970's when some Kingdom Halls had a closet with white dress shirts, and visiting speakers would NOT BE ALLOWED to give their talks if they were "inappropriately dressed". I was called off the platform during a Ministry School assignment because I had a blue shirt under my suit coat, and chastised because I had a mustache.
When Jesus was teaching in the Synagogue, did he have to conform to the dress code of Rabbis, and the sideburns never trimmed, and the long Long, LONG beards they had, in order to be allowed to teach from the "platform"?
I hope someone out there knows Jewish "rules' and customs about "dress codes" in Jesus' time ... he was referred to as "Rabbi".

So having nice hair and a good outfit is apparently bad? I see people dress like this at the convention all the time lol
Wild colored socks.
Anthony Morris III actually wasn’t saying thereÂ’s anything wrong with that. He said that sock color was a matter of taste, and that he thought some of these young brothers with brightly colored socks were demonstrating poor taste, but it wasnÂ’t immodest.

Tight Pants
(tight pants on the young brothers who the worldly gay designers are drooling over at 27:35)
“…and the other one that needs addressing is for these young fellows, cause the older ones arenÂ’t doing much of it, thankfully, uhhh, itÂ’s the metrosexual look. WeÂ’ve addressed that in the past, weÂ’ve said things about it, but whatÂ’s happened now has really caught on more.Â
Now the metrosexual look, thatÂ’s the tight suit jacket and the tight pants, better known as ‘tight pantsÂ’. (laughter) And, uh, they are tight, I mean tight all the way down to the ankles. And, that is not modest brothers. No. ItÂ’s not appropriate. ItÂ’s not sound of mind.Â
And I was proud of one Circuit Overseer who told me this past summer at one of the Intl. Conventions, 'cuz he brought it up, one of these fellows, he shows up for his Circuit OverseerÂ’s visit and wants to go out in the ministry work with him, door-to-door, heÂ’s wearing 'tight pantsÂ’. And the Circuit Overseer was man enough, spiritual man enough to say, 'No. IÂ’m not going door-to-door with you. Not with that dress on. Inappropriate.'Â
So a lot to think about and you elders out there listening in, and be kind now, we always want to try to imitate Christ Jesus. You be spiritual man enough to tell these young fellows 'You donÂ’t go out in the ministry looking like that. Not in this organization.'Â
And frankly I have asked sister after sister, 'You know, what do you think of this? Do you find that appealing, attractive? You know, IÂ’m just curious, 'cause IÂ’m not a woman. Ahhh.Â’ (laughter) And you know what, IÂ’ve not found one yet that thought they look good. (Garbled, poor audio quality for a couple seconds.)Â
And this is a fact, the homosexuals that are designing these clothes, they like you in tight pants. (Huge laughter) Not, spiritual people. So, it’s something to consider for Christian grooming. Is it appropriate? Is it modest? Does it display soundness of mind? If not, do something about it.”

Spanx
“…what it is is this Spanx, this skin-tight stuff they wear. Now, are you sisters wearing this in the ministry? No. I canÂ’t say that IÂ’ve ever seen that. But when they exercise, they leave their home and theyÂ’re jogging in this stuff?Â
Look at the verse. Is that appropriate to wear skin-tight Spanx or whatever they call them? It’s not modest and it’s certainly not sound of mind. It’s really inappropriate. There’s nothing else to say about it. Now you want to be in your home or your room and wear that stuff, that’s your business. But don’t go out in public like that and say you worship the True God. ‘I’m just trying to stay in shape’. (laughter) Inappropriate.”
