We have principles of modesty. One can violate a principle of modesty and not be in "sin" or guilty of "abomination". Sometimes they are unlearned. Sometimes they work in a job that requires them to wear pants. Sometimes they have personal reasons why they prefer pants. Sometimes they have yet to see how dresses and skirts are more modest. Sometimes the Spirit is dealing with an entirely different area of their lives at the time. A principle isn't a law. It's a guiding concept. Modesty is an admonition, not a law.
Law vs. Grace.
Legalism vs. principles.
There's a world of difference.

you don't have principles. You have a legalistic mindset bound to a subjective model - your opinion. You reject God's word in favor of your opinion.
That is your prerogative but it is sad when you attack someone for taking a Biblical stand.
The Holy Ghost will NEVER contradict the Bible. The Bible was given by the Holy Ghost:
(2Pe 1:21 ESV) For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
To reject the Word is to reject the Holy Ghost.
