But let thine apparel be plain, not for adornment, but for necessary coversing: not to minister to thy vanity, but to keep thee warm in winter, and to hide the unseemliness of the body: lest under the pretence of hiding the unseemliness, thou fall under another kind of unseemliness by thy extravagant dress. St. Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (IV).
