Vatican City: Guards Turn Back Immodest Dressers

Authorities have begun enforcing a dress code to enter Vatican City that previously applied only to St. Peter’s Basilica. The ban on “immodest clothing” now applies to shorts and “shoulder-revealing” tops. Locals, who are accustomed to treating Vatican City as just another neighborhood in Rome, were surprised by the crackdown, while tourists who were barred from entering scurried off to buy shawls and trousers.
