Garment in bright fuchsia pink
Question
Is there any problem with a woman wearing a garment that is entirely or partially in a bright pink (fuchsia) color?
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
There are two points here:
Regarding the prohibition of wearing red clothing – pink is not considered red.
Regarding modesty – a conspicuous, eye-catching garment is not modest, since it draws attention.
Therefore, if the color is “radiant” and attracts the eye, it is forbidden to wear it.
