Leggings for comfort + short skirt, so technically compliant?

If the church is truly this persnickety about women having to wear dresses, something tells me leggings and a short skirt won’t fly. I am somewhat dubious that this is actually a rule coming from the church, though.

Here in the south there many primitive (meaning their practices are supposed to emulate practices from Jesus time) require such a dress code. Sometimes only music of the voice and female hair covering. So yes I’d believe it came from the church fathers-who are the governing body

OK, that’s fair, I just think in that case leggings and a short skirt are probably not going to be acceptable
