Is the whole shirt-layering thing something they have to do, or is it a choice? Because I notice some of the teenage girls wear short sleeves with no problem. They are mainly Janelle's kids, and I think Janelle is the most laid-back of the moms.

I haven't seen what you are talking about, but, teenage girls would not be in garments yet.  They are only given when a girl is married or going on a mission.  The guys get them when they hold the priesthood (earlier.)  Garments have sleeves, so the married women would never have bare arms, or short skirts.

Some polygamy sects use older models of garments, some the newer LDS approved variety, although they would not be allowed to purchase those.  I assume they have their own produced by their church.  Originally they were covered neck to wrist to ankle, then they (the LDS version) became progressively shorter in the arm and leg, and the neckline lower as well.  I imagine Cody's family wears something in between, but who knows?

Here is a bit more on garments:  http://www.lds-mormon.com...lworker/endowment1.shtml

Current mainstream LDS garments:

Past garments:

Although, for example, at BYU there is a dress code that pretty much would be garment-safe, even though they aren't wearing them yet.  See below.  As children age, they dress even more modestly.

Appropriate for Women Dresses, loose-fitting blouses, shirts, and sweaters with sleeves (Caps are not sleeves) Skirts-worn to the waist (No low riders), culottes, modest pantsuits, jeans, slacks and shorts Hemline on dresses, skirts, and shorts must cover the knee Modest, neat hairstyles Footwear worn in all public places Back to Top

Inappropriate for Women Dresses or skirts with slits above the knee Tight clothing and leggings, if leggings are not covered by clothes (dresses, shorts and skirts which cover the knees or lower.) The no-bra look Any sleeveless clothing which exposes the underarm and midriff Evening or formal wear with low-cut necklines, or gowns that are backless, strapless, or which have spaghetti straps Extreme hairstyles or colors Any athletic shorts and sweats Excessive ear-piercing (more than one pair) Body piercing and visible tattoos Patched, faded, frayed or torn clothing Bandanas

The break-out star from the TLC show ‘Sister Wives’ got divorced back in 2008, and we have the details, including a large debt to the nation’s number one lingerie chain!

HollywoodLife.com dug up the divorce document for Robyn Brown (Kody Brown’s newest (fourth) wife on TLC’s Sister Wives) and looks like Robyn loves lacy underthings! According to the filing, in Ravalli County in Montana, Robyn had serious money issues up until the divorce to David Preston Jessop back in 1999, including owing almost $1,000 to Victoria’s Secret! We’re guessing the unmentionables may have helped her snatch up the desirable Kody Brown.

The divorce document breaks down the separate debts of Robyn & David. Robyn had a mound of debt that was awarded to her in the divorce. Besides the unusually high Victoria’s Secret bill, she also owed thousands to Target and Sears. The total debt awarded to her was… $32,400!

But she didn’t leave the marriage empty-handed — according to the docs she got to keep the Sanyo VCR (a VCR in 2007?) and a Kirby vacuum cleaner.

David didn’t go away light either; he got to keep the 1974 Academy Mobile Home!

Robyn was married to David Preston Jessop back in 1999; the couple had three children together over the duration of their marriage; David, Aurora & Brennan. They filed for divorce in 2007, citing irreconcilable differences.

Vanilla, are you assuming first wife duties of this thread? You sure seem to want to be a mod here.

Oh, and no, I have only one name on Sucks. Oh, and one from years and years ago, but I forgot that password and created Lola. I don't do ghosties.

I forgot about her VS obsession, that does seem strange for a former wife of a Jessop, since they are infamous compound peeps, arrests for "marrying" children 12 or 13 years old, etc. and you would think garments would be observed and worn.
