Fashion is a way people express their personality and passions. Yet, Christians are notorious for having either bad taste in fashion or signing it off altogether. The word bland comes to mind for many people when they imagine “Christian clothing.” Christian fashion is considered boring, or Christians just conform to the culture around them, losing a chance of impact. However, this should not be the case. Fashion is a distinct and crucial part of culture. Everyone has to wear clothes, and what you wear sends a message. Clothing is important. But if Christians are sons and daughters of the creative Creator and King of the universe, we should be sending a message of immense imagination and royalty. Yet, also living like servants, as Jesus did. So our fashion should be humble, bold, and proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ through our dress.
“Fabrics of Faith is a Christian based lifestyle brand that offers a wide variety of inspirational Christian Clothing & Apparel designed for men & women to glorify the Good News of Jesus Christ.” Fabrics of Faith seeks to change the way people think about Christian fashion. They explain on their website, “At Fabrics of Faith, we strive to design unique, stylish, spiritually captivating Men’s and Women’s Christian clothing and apparel. Our mission is a spiritual calling to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ and His perfect sacrifice for sin to the ends of the Earth, as He has commanded.” Not only do they care about fashion, but they care about spreading the Good News and Word of God. This business uses people’s God-given creativity to give Christians a way to dress in a kingdom-minded way.
Fabrics of Faith can only do so much, though. Now, Christians have an opportunity to use the products that Fabrics of Faith design and incorporate them in their own fashion, to share the Gospel through the way they dress. This requires each person to think critically about how they dress, to reflect God’s infinite beauty and creativity, and do it all for the glory of God.
