"Modesty is the most beautiful ornament of the Christian woman."
Pre-loved & Sustainable
Here at Saintly Threads, we strongly encourage the virtue of modesty. St. Jean Baptiste de La Salle once wrote, "Let reserve and chastity be their adornments, not sumptuous apparel, and to dress as women who show by their good works that they profess a life of piety." An full article explaining Mary-like modesty can be found here.

All pieces are either vintage or pre-loved, handpicked and sourced by myself. Some pieces may require some modifications to make it modest, which would be mentioned in the description of the item.
“Keep yourself always, as much as possible, on the side of plainness and modesty, which, without doubt, is the greatest ornament of beauty, and the best excuse for the want of it”
—St. Francis de Sales
