SPONSORED: LDS Moms Design Modest Dresses
Three LDS women were tired of wearing layers of clothing to stay modest in warm Arizona, so they created their own line of women’s apparel that is modest, trendy, and not layered. “It can be 100-plus degrees in Arizona. And added layers of clothing make it worse!” said Co-Owner Emma...
Modesty and Halloween
Why does modesty always become an issue around Halloween? What is it about this holiday that makes people feel okay about showing more skin than usual? I love dressing up for Halloween, and as an LDS midsingle, there are plenty of parties and dances to attend in costume. But I’ve noticed...
Video: Alex Boye Stars in Mormon Modesty Remake of One Direction's 'That's What Makes You Beautiful'
MR says: We love Alex Boye, and this video is too perfect not to share! Covering the popular song has become quite a trend among LDS young men groups, but this time, rather the lip syncing the popular song "That's What Makes You Beautiful," Boye and his group changed up the...

Church member Tristen Seal was one of eight fans to win a makeover on the hit TV show Project Runway—and she became a powerful example of modesty in the process. Tristen Seal smiles on the runway with designer Justin LeBlanc (photo...
Vogue & Virtue: Modest Fashion at the Emmy Awards
Sometimes it can feel like modest and frumpy are synonymous, but these celebrities from the 2013 Emmy Awards proved that is not always the case. Check out some of our favorite modest looks from the red carpet. Now before we start nit-picking, let me clarify: not all these dresses are 100 percent...
The Real Story Behind Utah County Dad's Viral Short-Shorts Photo
MR says: Deseret News says Mackintosh shared this statement: "I simply did this in hopes that my daughter would know of my great love for her and that she knows of her great worth. Now that it has gone viral, I hope that young women everywhere understand their great worth. I will look like an idiot any day if that point gets across."
What A Pope Can Teach Us About Modesty
MR says: Simply a beautiful post on modesty and the broader ideas that come with that principle. Pope Francis’ obvious decency appeals to me as a human. His discourse and homilies appeal to me as a Christian. But his humble actions appeal to me as a Mormon woman who is weary of witnessing, over and...
Orthodox Jewish bride: How a Mormon website ended my hunt for modest bridesmaid dresses
MR says: Modesty isn't just a Mormon thing--and it's great to LDS companies positively influencing the lives of others. We’ve all seen the movies. In “27 dresses,” Katherine Heigl parades around in a series of hideous bridesmaid gowns, each puffier, shinier and more ungaptchka than the last. In “My...
Former model leaves the runway for her faith
MR says: This is a Christian woman (not of our faith) who left a career as a Victoria's Secret model because of her marriage and her beliefs. Read the full story for an interesting interaction she had with a cousin that influenced her decision. Dedicated to sharing a message of self-worth and modesty, Kylie...
Ultimate Guide: Modest Swimwear 2013
The sun has come out, and it's time your best swimsuit did too! Confession: I have a love/hate relationship with my swimsuit. I love it because it means that it’s finally warm! It means fun times with friends and family at the pool. But I hate it because it also means that I’ve got to somehow...
Modesty: It's for Boys, Too
LDS girls are constantly reminded to be careful of their hemlines and sleeve lengths. But are we doing enough to teach our boys about modesty? Recently, my 13-year-old son began lifting weights after school. As a result, he has developed large, well-defined biceps. Anxious to show off his new...
Femininity abroad: How clothing standards clash
MR says: FASCINATING article on differing standards of modesty across countries, and what happens when differing modesty isn't observed. Knee-length skirts. No revealing attire. English major Ashley Brocious thought she dressed modestly, but she didn’t plan on spending hours at the “DI” searching for a...
Youths from 25 California wards attend Mormon Prom
MR says: This is a cool idea that seems to be making the rounds in LDS culture. Youths from more than 25 wards of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif., area gathered March 16 at Santa Margarita Bell Tower for the annual Mormon Prom. Young men and women...
Modesty reflects discipleship, leaders say
MR says: I love what Sister Burton says about teaching "the why." In a world where movie stars, pop culture, and reality television are defining standards of beauty and dress, Latter-day Saint women should be distinct and different, say general auxiliary leaders of the Church. The way Latter-day Saint...
