The halachos of modesty are not kept hidden. They are easily accessible, via Google Books (even), and only very few trustworthy and honest clothing stores abide by these halachos. The majority of the so-called Jewish “modest” clothing stores are ignorant of the laws of Jewish modesty pertaining to clothing because they do not take the time to study the laws and are transgressing right and left, selling immodest clothing to Jewish women and girls.

Here are very good and trusted resources for studying about Jewish modesty.

Try this sewing blog for Jewish modest clothing. http://modestjewishclothing.blogspot.com

It is more consistent with halacha as defined by our Sages, described in Rabbi Falk’s Modesty: An Adornment for Life book.

Very interesting interview. It’s fascinating to hear individual beliefs and how people came to their personal convictions. I should go read the 2nd half of the interview.

This is quite a fascinating interview! I appreciate what she said about modesty not just being the clothing, but about having discretion on what we share, too. It also makes sense about the men not having quite as strict rules.

It’s interesting that the Jews value modesty so highly. Probably came from God’s Law originally. :) Thank you for this informative post! :)

Thanks for this interview! Standards of modesty differ everywhere, and I think that the best gauge for this is to recognize what men are generally attracted to sexually in women. Predominantly it is the woman's chest area, legs, and silhouette. Showing too much skin regardless of whether they are from these areas is also sexually alluring. .-= Rachel @ a la Modest´s last blog ..Cuff Rings Giveaway Winner =-.
