Going modestly before G-d is not only about the clothes you wear, but it is also about your attitude and the manner in which you present yourself to others. A person might be using enticing expressions and gestures (body language), even if modest clothing is being worn.
The Torah's standard of modest dressing for women is that the torso would be completely covered with a high neckline, with the arms covered past the elbows, and the legs covered past the knees. These are requirements for Jewish women, but only guidelines (i.e. not strictly required) for Gentile women.
