No, I disagree that it should be a male usher.  There should be an older lady who's select for this duty on account of a kind disposition and a good charitable attitude, to point these things out to ladies.  When a man comes up to a woman to point out immodest dress, the typical retort is, "so, what? ... are you checking me out, you perv?"  That kind of reaction to it, especially if the woman feels humility after having been accosted in that manner, is 100% to be expected.

See, the Novus Ordo abuse this notion, but the reason there were "deaconesses" in the early Church were for varoius duties that were not fitting for men to perform, not because they were ordained in any way.  So, for instance, Baptism was done by immersion, and often ladies needed some assistance getting dressed and undressed, etc ... and this was delgated to various ladies, these do-called deaconesses.
The usher should not allow her to enter until she dresses appropriately. Who cares whether that flatters or disturbs the woman? It's not meant to be any type of compliment, rather it should embarrass or shame her but these days it probably won't. The point to be made clear to her and everyone is that she's not getting in dressed like that. Period.

.

Yes, Pope Pius XI decreed in 1930 that women dressed immodestly must be denied entry into the church, in extreme cases. I don't see who is able to prevent them from entering except the ushers. The priest is usually hearing confessions or vesting for Mass or something similar.

The quote is:

Quote
9. Women and girls who wear immodest clothes are to be prohibited from Holy Communion and from the office of sponsor in the sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation, and in certain cases, they are to be prohibited even from entry into the church.

After the decades of destruction caused by feminism, it’s sad to see the coddling of women continue.  Women know when they’re dressed inappropriately.

You should tell the priest. Never go to the woman directly.
What? lol

Like the priest has time for that at the moment of stopping her (or him) from entering. You need ushers for that. 

For regular church "members" this is an easy, "fix it or leave" scenario, if they are out of town and probably think it's a regular Novus Ordo Church, well, they're in the wrong place if they can't change. Sorry. This is a bigger offense to God than people think, in my opinion.
