[quote=Anonymous]Just returned from several days in Istanbul. It is a beautiful, modern, safe city and you will absolutely love being there! As others noted, Istanbul is a very chic, fashionable European city, and you will see people dressed in a variety of fashions. If you do wear leggings, I suggest wearing long layers over them (e.g., a long tank top that covers your rear and a wrap sweater, for example) and not wear anything too low cut on top or bottom. It's a progressive city, but there are still cultural norms to pay attention to. If you tour a mosque, such as the Blue Mosque, you will need to cover your shoulders and head/hair. I would suggest you NOT wear leggings to mosques. Women who wore leggings, jeggings or skintight pants were provided a wrap to wear over their clothing while in the mosque. It's not uncommon but you look kind of like an idiot for not dressing properly for the occasion. Have an amazing trip![/quote]
