I haven’t purchased or seen individuals carrying nylons in a very long time it appears, but naked legs simply really feel intuitively unprofessional to me. Assist!
You’re superb both manner.
There are some variations on this by area and era, however normally naked legs are completely superb and never thought of unprofessional … nevertheless it’s additionally superb to put on nylons (also called pantyhose or stockings) when you want them. I’m positive there may be some extraordinarily conservative trade on the market that also expects one thing protecting your legs, however that’s very a lot an outlier. Naked legs with attire are commonplace now.
In the event you don’t need naked legs, tights are a extra modern-looking choice than nylons (tights are extra opaque than nylons and aren’t designed to appear like your pores and skin). However any of those choices are superb.
