modesty be known to all men. The Lord is nigh.” (Philippians 4:5) The modesty rules in this article apply to all men and all women and thus to believers and unbelievers. However, modesty rules for Catholic religious men and women are more restrictive to one degree or another according to the rule of their Order. Whoever violates a rule of modesty commits a fault or a sin (venial or mortal) depending on the severity of the immodesty. Extreme vs. less-than-extreme immodesty Extreme immodesty is the exposing of the flesh of a man or woman that is so immodest that all must turn away from viewing it unless the situation allows or requires it. If the situation allows or requires it, it is not immodest at all. All other forms of immodesty are less than extreme and hence persons can view lessthan-extreme immodesty in all situations without committing a fault or a sin. But the person who is immodest commits a fault or a sin (venial or mortal). ................... https://www.johnthebaptist.us/jbw_english/documents/articles/rjmi/tr52_modesty_rules_for_men_and_women.pdf
