The Modest Edit

The Modest Edit gathers the covered pieces from MEAN BLVD designers: long sleeves, high necks, ankle and floor lengths, and tops that work under a jacket or an abaya. Most of the collection is maxi or midi dresses, with a smaller group of jackets, a blazer and long-sleeved tops. Every piece is made to order by the designer, so sleeve and hem lengths can be adjusted before it is cut.

About The Modest Edit

What is in The Modest Edit

Maxi dresses lead, then midi dresses, long-sleeved tops and a few jackets. Fabrics are taffeta, crepe, poly silk, cotton and velvet, mostly in white, black and red. The coverage comes from the cut, not from layering.

For a full-length, fully sleeved dress, start with the Mira A-line Long Sleeved Polyester Maxi Dress and the Noble Sheath Turtle Neck Poly Silk Ankle Length Dress from THE SOUL. TINH Atelier makes the Linh Nguyet A-line High Neck Taffeta Floor Length Dress, a structured option for a formal dinner. Maison des Copains offers the Eirlys Sheath Puffy Sleeved Crepe Floor Length Dress and the Elysia Sheath Mandarin Collar Crepe Calf Length Dress, both with closed necklines. The Hera Sheath Bubble Sleeved Double Knit Floor Length Dress by Margée Atelier and the Solenne Straight Cape Sleeved Taffeta Maxi Dress by LaMai Atelier add volume at the shoulder while keeping the arm covered.

Midi options include the Cleopatra Pegged Long Sleeved Taffeta Midi Dress from Raffiné and the Kaliyah A-line Long Sleeved Spandex Velvet Midi Dress from Tamitu. Eegen Studio, the largest label here, contributes the Daphne A-line Gathered Spandex Floor Length Dress and the Ruri Straight Boat Neck Silk Top.

How to choose a modest dress here

Check sleeve, neckline and length in the title. Long sleeved, turtle neck, high neck and mandarin collar pieces need nothing added; V-neck and asymmetric necklines work with a slip top underneath.

Gulf customers tend to order the floor-length sheaths and A-lines in black or white for family gatherings, and the long-sleeved taffeta and crepe dresses for Ramadan and Eid evenings. US and Australian customers more often pick the midi lengths and sleeved velvet for fall and winter dinners.

Do these dresses come with lining?

Most sheath and A-line dresses here are lined; the product page states the fabric. If a listing mentions mesh or a see-through panel, plan for a slip or ask the designer to add lining.

Can I order a longer sleeve or a higher neck?

Yes. Each dress is made to order, and the measurement form lets you note full-length sleeves, a closed back or a higher neckline. The designer confirms what the pattern allows before cutting.
