Modest clothes

Hi

I'm not sure what the right word for this is but what adjective can be used to describe clothes that are the opposite of 'bold'? Could that be 'modest'?

Thanks

For clothes of muted colors: subdued or discreet.

Modest means that the clothes cover a a large portion of the body (long sleeves, long skirts, high neckline).
