Reply To: whay are stockings allowed if they are see through? or are they not allowed?

I don’t have the sources off hand and I will try to look it up tomorrow, but basically Rav Moshe and the Mishnah Berurah are of the opinion that shok beisha ervah does not apply to under the knee. Thus, meikar hadin, according to them, one does not have to wear stockings. There are many poskim who disagree, Rav Ahron Kotler among them ( and apparently Rabbi Falk.) That being said, obviously if the minhag hamokom is not to allow it, then it is assur. Rav Moshe adds that even those that are makpid are allowed to wear stockings that are the same color as the skin. I don’t remember exactly off hand if he spoke of see through stockings, plus I’m not really familiar with all the differences between sheer, nude, skin color, etc. Maybe the females on the site could help us out.
