* Yes if they dress in a style called 'frumpy.' To go to the extreme of dressing too sexy is also 'too out there.' Skirts; blouses with a nice neckline, but not too deep towards the chest line; dresses (same thing) and using good color in the material with simple lines in the clothing is always a winner. If in doubt one can go to any fashion shop and ask for help by telling the clerk (especially in boutiques) what they want to buy and for what occasions (or to wear to work.)

What does modest means mean?

"Modest means" defines a person's financial condition. For example, "He/She is a man/woman of modest means." Such a statement indicates the person is not wealthy, but rather that their income is quite modest, possibly substandard. "Modest means" has nothing to do with a person's achievements or abilities. The first answer better defines only the word "modest" as noted: A modest person is unwilling to draw attention to his own achievements or abilities and might answer enthusiastic comments about his work, such as, "That looks amazing!" with the response, "Nah, it looks okay." However, such a response probably only indicates false humility. A truly modest person would possibly respond, "Thank you, but like Michael Angelo said, I am still learning."

Some Special Occasions Will Call For a Modest Formal Dress?

An invitation comes in the mail for a special event. It could be an anniversary party, a formal birthday party or any other kind of occasion. If the people who sent the invitation suggest wearing a formal dress, you need to go out to shop for the perfect outfit. This may be the type of event that also calls for a more modest formal dress. Many formal dresses are sexy. They are also very attractive and will call attention to the woman’s figure. However, there may be a need to wear a modest dress. Whether you have been told to dress more modestly by someone else who is attending, or if you know that the people throwing the party are more conservative, you know that your dress needs to be modest. This isn’t a problem. You can first surf the internet and find some websites for formal dresses that offer a wide selection of styles for every occasion. Even if you don’t purchase the dress online, you can still get a good idea of what you’d like to buy. Then go out to the department stores, designer stores or specialty dress shops to find the ideal dress. A modest formal dress can still come in many designs. It can be a solid, print or floral color. It can still be sleeveless. The modest dress should not be too short. It doesn’t have to be ankle length, but knee length would also work well. It can have straps or short sleeves, but shouldn’t be cut too low or show any cleavage. The modest formal dress should also be a little looser and not be as form fitting as some dresses are. The back also shouldn’t be cut too low. Even when eliminating all of these factors, a beautiful dress can be found that will not only look great on you, but please everyone who sees you wearing it. Another thing to consider when wearing this dress is the proper shoes. Stilettos should be avoided if a modest formal dress is needed. A normal high heel will do just fine and can still accent the legs just as nicely.
