8.3/10

This empire waist maxi is a long sleeve, floor-length knit dress with a boat neck. The sleeves are full, the hem sits near the floor at about 57.5 inches, and the fabric does not read sheer in the photos. It is an easy match for a bridal party that needs the same covered dress without spending a fortune.

| Modesty score Modesty score: How much skin the dress leaves showing, from 1.0 to 10.0. Closed necks, long sleeves, floor hems, and opaque fabric raise the score. Open necks, keyholes, slits, sheer fabric, and shorter hems lower it. | 8.3 | 8.0 | 8.8 | 8.2 | 9.5 | 8.5 | 8.6 |
| Notes | Long sleeves and a floor hem cover well, but the boat neck leaves the collarbone open, which is why the Modesty score sits under a true high neck. | The round neck stays open, while lining and a padded bust are named so the chiffon does not read sheer under lights. | The mock neck covers the throat and the sleeves are long, but a back keyhole shows skin and lining is listed for light colors only. | Crew neck and lining give real coverage, but the floral print reads as daytime rather than a satin evening column. | The high neck closes the throat, the sleeves are long, and the hem is floor length in an opaque knit, so less skin shows than on an open-neck maxi. | A straightforward long sleeve modest maxi aimed at weddings and formal parties, without a slit in the cut we scored. | Long sleeves and a modest closed neck keep this chiffon cut aimed at bridal-party matching, not a casual day dress. |
