Religious Zionism - Dress

Dress

Religious Zionists are often called "Kippot sruggot", referring to the knitted or crocheted skullcaps worn by the men. However, there are also some religious Zionists who wear other types of headcoverings (black velvet kippot, for example), and if a certain person wears a knitted kippa, it does not necessarily mean that he is a religious Zionist.

Famous quotes containing the word dress:

    The dress of a woman of Lhasa,
    In its place,
    Is an invisible element of that place
    Made visible.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    ... my one aim and concentrated purpose shall be and is to show that women can learn, can reason, can compete with men in the grand fields of literature and science ... that a woman can be a woman and a true one without having all her time engrossed by dress and society.
    M. Carey Thomas (1857–1935)

    Let us not deny it up and down. Providence has a wild, rough, incalculable road to its end, and it is of no use to try to whitewash its huge, mixed instrumentalities, or to dress up that terrific benefactor in a clean shirt and white neckcloth of a student of divinity.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
