I'm afraid that "overdressing" could be detrimental, so I thought I'd see what you ladies have to say. Thoughts?

I'd suggest following the rules. You can definitely do something a little different and accessorize to make yourself stand out even if you're wearing shorts or capris. While I don't think wearing a skirt would be "detrimental", the last thing you want on day 1 of recruitment is to be uncomfortable/stand out in a bad way because you didn't follow the rules like everyone else.
Worry more about your conversation skills, recs (if applicable), and putting your best foot forward. You won't be accepted into a chapter simply because you're wearing a skirt.
