I am sure most everyone has heard of Old Navy, if not already purchased from them before. However, I’ve run across a few things that have either been really great in the modesty department, or been a complete disappointment.

My favorite item at Old Navy is their “Perfect-Fit T’s”. It seems that they tend to make them a bit on the small side (or maybe I just like looser-fitting clothing) so I buy a size bigger than normal. The quality is not great (they won’t last for 5 years, probably) but it’s nice to find a fairly inexpensive t-shirt that I can wear every day and when it wears out I can afford to replace them (even if it’s once a year). I really like the selection of colors and the fact that they have such a long length.

I also like their different layering tank-tops and camisoles. They are all too low in the neck, but they all are nice and long for layering purposes.

My biggest disappointment with Old Navy is that some of their knit fabric tends to be too thin for wearing alone. I have found this to be true in some of their t-shirts, as well as in a new style of polo shirt. Even when I layered them, the shirts showed every edge and seam of the camisole underneath!

I also wish that they would make camisoles with higher necklines, and skirts and dresses that came below the knee. They have some very cute, feminine styles that would be perfect with a little bit of extra fabric!


A wife to my handsome man and mama to my little man. I spend my days fixing meals and cuddling. I live in the cold, cold north, where there are four seasons: almost snow, lots of snow, more snow, and the two days of summer. I love the subject of modesty, but am dissapointed that there seems to be so little of it in today's clothing. Maybe this will be my very small way of helping to bring it back.

    The reason is already there in your article, fairly inexpensive = thin fabric- actually as we all know the garment is priced as per the quality of the fabric first and then the sewing quality.

    you should be going for much higher gsm if you require good quality. Tshirts of such quality wouldnt withstand a single wash. honestly…
