Someone could be wearing something quite revealing and still be modest.
Someone could be covering up completely and still be immodest.
Modesty is culturally defined and circumstantial; and usually has far more to do with intent than anything else.
Frankly, I think we immediately step into error the moment we start to judge other people by the way they look and trying to define what is and isn't "modest"; which almost always results in finding ways to play the moral busybody and the self-righteous hypocrite.
