No need to be frumpy just because you're old.


In the NE women wear tights or hoisery of some sort. Wearing bare legs would be like wearing flip flops in January. It simply isn't done.


No, no and no. According to Tim Gunn "Bare legs are always the more fashionable option."


Where, in NJ? I attended quite a few high end events when living in NY and don't ever remember women wirh bare legs in the winter. My husband went to boarding school and his friends are not slumming it in manhattan. Sure, maybe women don't wear tights to the golden globes, but I wouldn't try and pull off any of those dresses at something outside of Hollywood or a fashion industry event. For a normal cocktail event in Manhattan you wear tights or hoisery. Guarantee most fashionable women in NY know Wolford and very well.

You are either old or out of shape (or both)

It may depend somewhat on industry / circle, but to me as a longtime NYC publishing industry person, hose (even black ones) immediately date a woman as older or more out of it. You still see them in DC more but (at least in my circles) less so in NYC. it's too cold for bare legs I'd go with black tights.

Black tights or bare legs. Those screaming for hose have never lived in NYC.

And you seem rude. I'm 5 foot 4 and 110 lbs and 31. I'm not old. However, even if I were old and out of shape I would be happy. I love my Wolford tights and so do my friends here and in NY. Maybe it is an upper class thing, who knows?

I'm not screaming for hose but I'm screaming for the op to wear so.ething on her legs. Especially if it is an upscale event and it is snowing out like it has been in new York.

Go look at the David Patrick Columbia site and check out photos of formal events. See what the women are wearing and if they have bare legs.

You can be frumpy at any age.

I'm frumpy for wearing Wolford tights with my boots? I think it looks ridiculous to wear boots with bare legs.

The question was about a formal event. You and your boots and tights will fit right in. Moron.

The question was about formal attire. You and your boots can wear suntan leggs in the egg. Moron.

Why are you calling strangers a moron? Not my fault you're single. You should be nicer and then a man might be interested in you.
