Of course there is. You only have to look at the way that Muslims dress their women to see that there is a relationship.

Women are covered up to hide their beauty so that men will not fight over her. This means there is less conflict and the religion can carry on unimpeded. Of course, Muslim men blame their own weakness on Allah by saying that it is his decree.

Judaism and historic Christianity were no different. In modern times though, it is really only the ultra-orthadox Jews who still require their women to cover.

Also do not forget that religious clothing can be looked at as a uniform. Again, ultra-orthodox Jews wear black suits with black hats. Wearing those clothes gives them a sense of belonging in the crowd and strengthens their religion.
