I would not judge a *form fitting* skirt as immodest! The last Apostolic - UPC church my family attended for a short time had woman and girls (on and off the platform) who wore such. If you look good and can wear it .... then wear it well.....

Others might judge it as immodest.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:

- Every sinner must repent of their sins.
- That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
- That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
- The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

I think it depends on what you're calling "form-fitting." If you just mean a skirt that fits the wearer, then fine--I agree. If you mean "so tight she could barely squeeze into it" then I disagree. IMO, if you know something is revealing and you wear it anyway, that attitude in and of itself is immodest. My rule of thumb (that I've also passed on to my daughters) is, "Pretty leaves the house, and sexy stays at home."
This skirt "fits":

...and this is "tight" and revealing:

If one of my daughters tried to leave the house in a skirt like Kim Kardashian is wearing, I would make her change and the skirt would go in the Goodwill donation box. Completely inappropriate for a Christian woman, IMO.

*classy* minus a couple of letters? lol but none the less UGLY~ I do not know of a descent man who thinks that is even the least bit cute. My son (single) he says that is the one thing that would turn his head....the opposite direction  (that skirt)
