That's the only biblical modesty I know of. Modesty is subjective and relative to some extent, but then again, most of us know a brash, immodest woman when we see one. To that end, "immodest" has as much to do with attitude as it does with particular items of clothing, and the same is true for modesty.

Shamefacedness & sobriety are included for us already aren't they?
