The glorious colors reflected in all the sarees at the temple on Diwali is beautiful...Fashion and hairstyles are art forms too.
In many religious traditions, women wear headcoverings, and in some, elaborate hairstyles (Pentecostal/Apostolic churches)

I don't practice any of this myself, though my hair is pretty long. I'm not part of such a religious subculture, and it's far too conservative for me, but I have always found the appearance of it to be beautiful. As a little girl, not raised very religious and on the outside looking in, not knowing anything of the theological implication of it, I thought it was beautiful and feminine, exotic and cool.
Clothing in general strike me as an spiritual, if not religious, art form. There's just something about a piece that's either handmade, or reflective of another time or place, that I find makes me feel a connection with the greater world around me. And the artful combination of colors, fabrics, and styles can become an expression all its own.
