With summer just a few weeks away, you may be shopping for the perfect dress. The good news is that modest dresses are easier to find than ever before! Since I started blogging about modest fashion, I’ve stumbled upon several Canadian modest boutiques that I’d never even heard of before. And, of course, there are tons of American companies—from mommy boutiques to huge chains—that specialize in modest fashion!
Read on for the best places to shop for modest dresses and skirts!
1. Online Canadian Shops for Modest Dresses
Just Bee You
Founder Kristal Long says, “I started this boutique to provide Canadian customers with easy access to affordable, modern and modest women’s clothing.” Based in New Brunswick, she sells at Christian conferences, pop-up shops, and online! She offers some adorable dresses, great skirts, and cute tops. Check out her store here.
Shipping is a flat rate of $15 in Canada.
Gathered in Grace
Founded by Shannon Milton, this shop was one of the first of its kind to import Snoga activewear skirts, modest skirts from The Main Street Exchange, and modest dresses. It allows Canadian girls to purchase beautiful, modest clothing without worrying about cross-border shipping, taxes, or customs. Check out her full shop here.
Gathered in Grace recently launched their own skirt line, She Is Sublime, with 2 original denim skirt designs!
Shipping is $10 within Ontario and $15 to the rest of Canada and USA.
Free Shipping: Orders over $75 in Ontario; Orders over $100 in Canada; Orders over $150 in USA
Ladies & Lavender Boutique
Based in Saskatchewan, Ladies & Lavender Boutique was started by a two ladies who wanted modest, stylish, and affordable clothing. This shop has a great selection of denim and ponte modest skirts. It also offers cute and comfortable dresses! Shop the whole collection here
My favourite pick: My mom and I recently purchased this skirt and absolutely love it. It’s super flattering and comfortable.
Shipping varies by order.
Skirtz & Co.
This boutique store based in Steinbach, Manitoba, has a wide selection of modest dresses, skirts, and apparel. They even have a whole section of modest + cute maternity clothes.
To allow customers to try on their products, they have a Mobile Skirt Boutique that travels for Skirt Sales. How fun is that!
Shipping varies, and they do offer international shipping around the globe.
2. My Favourite Israeli Shop for Modest Skirts
Kosher Casual
This Israeli brand is my go-to shop for modest skirts. I first purchased their Running Skirt with Leggings a few years ago and fell in love! It was comfy, soft, and very flattering. I’ve also purchased denim skirts and cotton jersey skirts from KC, and I absolutely love the high quality. The skirts are so well made! I also bought a few of the A-Line Cotton Spandex Knee Length Skirts this spring, and you can read my review here.
And, one of my favourite features of Kosher Casual is their affordable shipping with Eco Post to Canada! Anything under 1 kilogram ships for just $7-10! You can’t beat that! Shop Kosher Casual here.
Shipping is $7 under 1/2 kilogram, $10 under 1 kilogram (Canada, USA, and Europe).
3. Online American Shops for Modest Dresses
Note to Canadian readers: For shipping to Canada from the United States, I always try to choose USPS. This gives me a better chance of avoiding customs/duties fees, which can be significant if you go with a courier such as UPS. Any orders under the value of $20 shouldn’t incur customs, but always do your homework first.
Inherit Co.
Based in Morris, MN, this modest clothing brand used to be called The Skirt Outlet. It’s now run by Amy and Anthony Ekren and their team. In addition to on-point dresses, skirts, and tops for ladies, Inherit also has an extensive selection of modest girls’ clothing. If you have a younger sister or daughter, you should totally check it out! Shop their store here.
Shipping is $8 in USA and varies for Canada (One option I love is that they will show you how much customs are due at checkout, and you can pay them right away).
Bates Sisters Boutique
This new boutique has affordable tops, dresses, skirts, and more! It was founded by sisters Whitney, Erin, and Carlin of the Bates Family of Up! TV fame. These sisters have an eye for fashion and have lots of adorable pieces. Shop now here.
Shipping is via USPS.
