Modest Fashion at the 2015 American Music Awards

This past weekend we were so excited to check out the red carpet fashion at this year’s American Music Awards.The past few award seasons have seen an increase in modest gowns and we were pumped to see what the 2015 AMA’s had in store. Unfortunately, there was noticeable lack of modesty. In fact, there were an incredible amount of outlandishly immodest gowns – one of which was actually censored by the press!

One performer, however, stood out of the crowd with her classic, modest and elegant black gown: Meghan Trainor.

Meghan Trainor rarely fails to impress when it comes to her modest wardrobe. You may remember her gorgeous gown from the Billboard Music Awards this past year. Yup, Meghan keeps it classy and stylish!

So here’s a shoutout to Ms. Trainor for not only being an amazing performer, but also for being an amazing example to young women worldwide. Here is a woman who has openly embraced her body type in a clear rejection of Hollywood’s dangerously unhealthy standards of beauty and shown young women everywhere that they can be elegant, glamorous and modest.

The Many Modest Looks of Taylor Swift

Recently, Taylor Swift made the news with an open letter to Apple Music, challenging them on their (then) current policy of not paying artists during free trials of the tech giant’s newest platform.

It was one of those rare cases in life where it seemed an irresistible force had met an unmovable object. Less than 24 hours later, however, Apple had capitulated, leaving T-Swift’s many fans to wonder if there wasn’t anything she couldn’t accomplish.

Not only does this girl have moxie, she also has incredible style. Modest and fierce? What is there not to love!

Modest Red Carpet Looks from the 2015 Billboard Music Awards

This year’s Billboard’s yielded some great modest fashion and not a little controversy as well. Here are some of our favorites from this year’s walk down the red carpet.

‘Cause she’s all about that bling, ’bout that bling, no treble! We loved Meghan Trainor in her gorgeous black sequin gown. Her heels are to die for as well!

Billboard - Kerr

Radio personality Kerri Kasem looked equally stunning in her white and red embroidered gown. We especially love the hourglass illusion that the floral motif creates.

Billboard-Band Perry - Kimberly Perry

Kimberly Perry of The Band Perry looked stunning in her heavily jewel encrusted (and tan lined) bodice which was perfectly complemented by a gorgeous oyster white satin skirt.

And what discussion of modest Billboard fashion wouldn’t be complete without the fabulously talented and oh so gorgeous Ms. Lindsey Sterling?

There has been a lot of discussion as to whether or not Lindsey’s dress qualifies as modest. Yes, everything is covered up (her dress is lined although this isn’t readily apparent in some pictures), but this leads to the conundrum all us ladies face: Does being covered up completely encompass modesty or is there more to the picture? Yes, Lindsey was covered up, but some have objected that the pattern is suggestive and the cut of the dress is revealingly tight.

Whatever you’re opinion, this year’s Billboards offered some great fashion and encourages us that so many celebs are taking a step in the more modest direction!
