Now before we start nit-picking, let me clarify: not all these dresses are 100 percent modest by LDS standards. But most of them are pretty close, and we applaud these women for choosing to show less skin on the red carpet. Though most of the following dresses would need a few modifications, they can certainly provide inspiration for all of us in our quest to be both modest and stylish.
