It should be noted that this extreme sectarian focus on outward standards was not a part of the original Apostolic movement in the book of Acts nor does it seem to be a part of the original Pentecostal organizations. Organizational unity was centered around the Apostolic doctrines of the book of Acts and not standards. Although they had holiness standards at the local level in the days of Howard Goss and A.D. Gurley, "dress codes" were not the bulwark of the movement as some would believe. In comparing the dress of the church of that day and society in general, one cannot see radical differences.
Most all of the women in the world wore their dresses and hair long. Even many women movie stars of that era, wore long hair and long dresses. So what distinguished the early modern day Pentecostal churches?

The Pentecostal movement of the early 1900's was known predominately for the various peculiarities that accompanied the Baptism of the Holy Ghost and speaking with other tongues.
This was the foremost bulwark that unified and identified the early modern day Pentecostal church.
