An unholy heart can dress very conservatively, if it pleases her (or him).
I've known some pretty godly people who wore less clothing than many would approve of.
It's WAY more in attitude than it is in appearance. I agree the appearance matters, but only a little, at least on the point of this thread. I have Indian friends who wear the bangles all the way up to their elbows, wear those stomach baring tops with the sari, wear lots of eye makeup, and yet they still seem very wholesome, demure and modest. It's in the way they ACT.
