Modesty is important. 1 Timothy 2:9-10 says, "In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works."
What is modest apparel is the question that need to be answered.
I want everyone to think about how you have seen people dress. Since everyone has an idea of what they think of as modest, think about what you think of as immodest. Now think about what employers require for appropriate dress at work. Most of us would agree that we don't want to see anyone's butte, breast, or bellies. Night club attire in by definition immodest. Christians are called to be in the world, but not of the world. Following the world's fashion trends is not always modest.
Now go to your own closet. Look at your outfits. Think about the above statements. If they are not modest, look to see if they can be altered or made modest by adding something to the outfit. For example, if the "dress" shows your butte when you bend over try adding the tights under it that is too tight. If the shirt is too short, see if it could be an under shirt to a shirt that is too low. I am aware that clothing cost money. It is not possible to just get a whole new wardrobe overnight. However, it is possible to make adjustments to how we wear the clothes that we already own.
