Are men wearing short sleeved shirts welcome in Italian churches?
As long as your shoulders and upper arms are covered and there is nothing offensive written on the shirt you'll be fine. Donna
Yes, cover your shoulders and knees. Sandals are fine.
definitely. And outside of the vatican, you can usually wear shorts, too. Dress respectfully, and most churches will not say much to you.
Thanks to all. Those replies were very helpful.
