Modest fashion focuses on longer lengths, looser fits and fuller coverage. It is popular across many markets and age groups.
What modest garments need
- Opacity: fabrics that are not see-through
- Drape: soft flow rather than cling
- Breathability: comfort across long, layered outfits
- Crease resistance: neat through the day
Fabrics that work well
- Crepe, especially heavier qualities
- Georgette, often lined or layered
- Viscose and PV blends
- Satin for occasion wear
- Chiffon for scarves and overlays
Tip
Check light colours for opacity on the body, not just on the table.
