Pretty much, yeah. Or go and get some suitable attire and then feel more than welcome to attend. Ideally they should be dressed appropriately, but at the very least they shouldn't really be wearing mini-skirts. If they are wearing tight jeans or a short skirt, then maybe they could grab a long coat, or a shawl, and wrap it round themselves so their legs and butt are covered.
If you're talking about someone who doesn't know the Islamically acceptable way to dress, and turns up at their first or second meeting, then that's an exception. They should be allowed to attend in the first instance, and then encouraged in the best way possible but with a degree of firmness to dress modestly when involved in MSA activities.
