For July, 2001:
Q: I was just at a wedding over the weekend and many of the women were wearing black stockings with their dresses in the middle of July! Their stockings really stood out as being very heavy and hot looking for this time of year. I didn't wear any hose with my dress and felt great. Were they "dated"? Was I too bare? What is your opinion?
A: We agree that black hose in the summer creates a heavy and dated look. If you are confident with your legs - definitely go hose-less! However, we are aware that some women feel too bare without hose, even in the summertime. If you feel you need to wear hose year-round, we suggest choosing a pair that matches you natural skin tone in the warmer months.
