FYI: This list is in no particular order.
10: Catwoman from The Dark Knight Rises:
Now there are many
incarnations of Catwoman. Not all of them are modest. But I gotta say, Anne
Hathaway makes a sleek, hot Catwoman in the promo pics of the The Dark Knight
Rises. Personally, Catwoman is probably my favorite Batman antagonist. She
definitely can bewitch me. But when I compare Eartha Kitt, Julie Newmar, Lee
Merriweather, and Michelle Pfeiffer against Anne Hathaway, I really do see Anne
pulling off the vixen quite well. She's got the soothing voice to play the
victim-turned-villain. She's got the curves to fit that mostly-tight suit she
wears. As much as Catwoman has been my favorite, this is my favorite physical
version. Now if the acting holds out. -T.J.
9: Arwen from Lord of the Rings
Arwen is a beautiful half-elf from the Lord of the Rings
series. Few people can say that over 2700 years of age, they are still looking
as good as they were hundreds of years younger. Her story is equally beautiful.
After meeting Aragorn, she decides to sacrifice her own immortality because of
her love for him. Her skin is fair and clear. Her raven hair is worn long and
loose. At one point, she wears a beautiful gossamer gown that's absolutely
gorgeous. –Andrew
8: Jane Lane from Daria:

7:Felicia Day (Actress - The Guild, Dragon Age:
Redemption)
Alright, I cheated.
All of the women on this list are characters. None of them are the
actors themselves. But for Felicia, I couldn’t find one of her characters
I found particularly attractive while being modest. Codex is mostly
modest but not someone I’m terribly attracted to. Tallis’s costume isn’t
particularly modest or immodest but you would only wear it if you were going to
a halloween party or killing someone. Felicia Day, on the other hand,
mostly wears modest clothes in her everyday life and for photoshoots. She
may show off her shoulders here and there but is a comparatively modest
celebrity. What makes her so attractive is her compassion and her
authenticity. When you have this much inner and outer beauty, why show
off your skin?-Stephen
6: Hermione Granger, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows (book
or movies Parts 1 and 2)
Smart witch with bewitching looks. What else could you want?
I mean, she's a strong independent woman that doesn't looks at every situation
with a cool head. With all the knowledge gained as the perfect student, she is
able to fight with the Dark Lord and his minions. Hermione vs Bellatrix is just
awesome. Plus, we're talking about one of the most loyal people to fight
against evil. Even though the love of her life was being a douchebag, she stuck
up for what was right and helped out her friend. And in the end, she still got
the guy she wanted. This proves to me that Hermione has some great worth as a
person. Now, as much as Hermione in the books is defined as frumpy and frizzy,
Emma Watson does an awesome job at putting life to the character and has her own
sense of moral and values that seem to parallel Hermione's quite well. -T.J.
5: Quistis, from Final Fantasy VIII:

4: Willow Rosenberg from Buffy the Vampire Slayer:

2: Belle from Beauty and the Beast
Yes, I know she's animated. But we're talking about a
beautiful book nerd before it was a popular thing. She wasn't the type of
person to flaunt her beauty. She was subtle. If Belle was in a modern day high
school, she would not be a cheerleader. She probably wouldn't even be in the
popular crowd. I'd bet good money that she'd be a flute player in the
orchestra, the one that all the other guys are trying to date and she's saying
no to because she has values and morals. Come on, that just made her more
attractive. Regardless, we're talking about someone who wasn't just beautiful
on the outside, she defined beauty on the inside. We're also talking of one of
the few princesses that took time to know her prince before falling in love
with him. Before Belle, you have Snow White (love at first sight), Sleeping
Beauty (love at first sight), Cinderella (love at first sight), and Ariel (love
at first sight). Belle really got to know the beast and was able to fall in
love with him because she didn't care about appearances. Someone who looks at
the inside of a person is more valuable than someone who looks at appearances
alone. (Of course, no matter how I look at it, I'm still most easily compared
to LeFou.) -T.J.

1: Kaywinnit “Kaylee” Frye (Firefly, Serenity)
Deep in space on a firefly class ship known as Serenity is a female
mechanic named Kaylee. Kaylee is an optimistic, bubbly, and fun young
woman. Though she is quite a sensual character she never once ever wears
revealing clothing. What makes her so attractive is not only her
personality but how she respects herself. She wears the practical greasy
mechanic jumpsuit despite being a girly girl. Simon, her love interest,
says “I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in engine
grease, you're--No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine
grease.” Way to go for being modest and for being yourself Kaylee!-Stephen
Some special mention goes out for some ladies who didn't make the list: Katness Everdeen, Harley Quinn, Black Widow, Seven of Nine, Judzia Dax, and Barbra Gordon. Sorry ladies, maybe next time.

You've got 2,4,6-10 spot on (maybe slightly different order). So I'll correct it for you:
ReplyDelete5. Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson)
3. Queen Amidala (Natalie Portman)
1. Jean Grey (Famke Janessen)
I'll give you Black Widow and Jean Grey, but Amidala, really?
ReplyDeleteShe's better looking than Leia, in my opinion. I always had a soft spot for her pretty Israeli skin tones. Only immodest thing she wore was when her outfit got torn in Ep. II.
DeleteQuick question: not to start a debate, but since when was Annie Edison modest? I'm having trouble thinking of an episode where she wasn't wearing something that made me a little uncomfortable.
ReplyDeleteReally? She wears a sweater in practically every episode. I can't ever remeber Annie wearing something that would make me uncomfortable. The only time she wore something racy was this past Christmas episode and the first season's Halloween episode. Maybe she makes you uncomfortable because of her stunning beauty. ;)
Delete... and a miniskirt every episode? But then again, with all the crap in the show itself, there are worse things I should be concerned about. :)
DeleteAnd there's the Western Paintball episode. I liked her outfit in that one do much, I wondered if I should talk to my bishop about it.
DeleteThere is something hot about a woman with two pistols...
DeleteIndeed, although there's something hotter about a woman with four. She didn't make the cut. She didn't fit into the 'modest' category. ;)
Delete@Alex, Are we talking about the same Community? I love this show. I can't think of much crap in it in the first place. :/
DeleteMy heart grieves that Arwen should be so low.
ReplyDeleteAh, grieve not! These are in no particular order. :)
DeleteCATWOMAN?!?! Seriously? She wears a skin tight body suit! And you can hardly count the TDKR version of Catwoman when you haven't even seen the movie yet.
ReplyDeleteBut I guess I'll give you the rest. lol.
Definitely Arwen and Kaylee. :D And just a reminder, in case folks didn't remember, the names weren't in any particular order. :)

ReplyDeleteAny girl that can be artsy, sing like a goddess, and go larping with all her nerdy boys, deserves a spot on the list kthnx
