Is This Modest?Nathalie Beatty (Baltimore Sun photo by Monica Lopossay September 17, 2008)

Erin: Wow…it’s wild! Maybe even a little hippie-ish…(or is that just me??). I think the dress is a tad short, so I’ll say slightly immodest.

MInTheGap: What, big boots with no snow on the ground?  I think the biggest problem I have with this shirt is the neckline, but it could be short– it’s hard to say.  I’m going mostly modest.

Your Turn….

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.

    I actually think this outfit is totally modest… the dress grazes the top of the knee and because it is so loose, shouldn’t be an issue when she sits down.

    For some reason, this appears immodest to me… I can’t figure out why though..

    Maybe you are confusing very fashionable with immodest? I know some people think that wearing the latest fashions, even when they are worn modestly, isn’t modest because it is too trendy, or whatever…

    I think its the shirt, or at least, the “over-shirt”. It’s see-through, and even though there is nothing to see underneath, the concept itself makes the mind wander.

    That make sense?

    You have an active imagination today. :) That dress isn’t see through at all.

    I asked my husband and he thinks that maybe you think the black and white check part might be see through, but I showed him that that pattern was repeated on the sleeve, and was part of the design…

    If you look on the right hand side of the image, you can see that there is some mesh material. So there is a mesh layer on it.

    I think it has more to do with the actual concept of it than it is itself. Maybe. I dunno.

    I didn’t see that as mesh, just a black and white checker pattern on the fabric.

    I do agree though, if it were see-through it probably wouldn’t have even been chosen for a Glimpsed feature. That would have been too obvious.

    I thought that it was a see-through layer over a layer that was not see through, thus making it modest, but conceptually tempting (if that makes sense).

    I see what you mean though. I’ll admit, you *could* be right… ; )
