This admonition is in the torah -- prohibiting women from wearing men's clothing. Actually, that portion of the torah was read the day after the question was posted (Sat. Sept 1). The ultra orthodox adhere to this -- strictly.

I asked the question because we attend a small temple in st. catherines canada. my mother-in-law does not like when i wear a dressy open toe shoe. I was just wondering if that was not proper etiquette for high holidays. It does get very hot in there for september services.

I just saw this. My post was 2 years old. Actually what I noticed about the clothes was that that they were all black (New York I think, not Orthodox) and I was told they were all designer. I never wear pants to an orthodox synagogue. I was really asking for my friend who had to go out and buy a dress (black)
