Sister missionaries with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can now wear dress slacks during their daily interactions with the public. Now, women in all 407 of the church’s mission regions can wear pants while proselytizing. The church’s revised guidelines call for dress slacks in “solid, conservative colors” that are “not too tight or too loose.” Examples of appropriate dress slacks were posted to the church’s website. Sister missionaries will still have to wear skirts or dresses while attending Sunday worship services, baptismal services, and some other church events. It wasn’t until 2017 that full-time female employees of the church were given permission to wear pants to work.
