Are you being obtuse on purpose? Caring about dressing modestly mostly comes from religious values and it's pious religious people who give a shit about this, so obviously this is where you'd most see it talked about? I'm not religious or telling you to be religious.

"Dressing modestly" and "modest fashion" are not some special exclusive rigid terms, they are combinations of multiple words that can describe things. If you want to be an autist about definitions this is the dictionary definition of modest for you. Lolita might cover up skin but its certainly not unassuming or humble. Modesty (in the sense of being humble and unassuming, not just sexual modesty) is considered a virtue in multiple religions and traditions, and a lot of them look down on fancy attention-grabbing dressing as immoral and immodest.
