I'm a Modest Dresser—25 New Fashion Finds I'm Losing it Over
There’s no other way to put this other than the fact that finding modest clothing in the sea of what is today’s online shopping world is difficult. Sometimes I find myself scrolling for what seems like hours, only to give up as I get to the third page of items that I don’t see myself wearing. If you find yourself in the same predicament, you’re not alone. While brands like ASOS and Shopbop may have dedicated parts of their site with a curated selection of modest clothing, most sites still require a little bit of digging. (Okay, maybe a lot.) Luckily for you, it’s my job to help. And as someone who’s been doing this since before the industry took a step into the direction of making modest dressing easier, you could say I’m a little bit of an expert.
Featuring a variety of price points, categories, and of course some of today's biggest trends, I searched high and low to find the best modest pieces on the market right now so you wouldn’t have to. Think smocked tops, printed midi skirts, and a plethora of silhouettes that are nonrestrictive and comfortable. What are you waiting for? Scroll below and start shopping.
