Question
Is it permissible for a married Ashkenazi woman to be lenient in wearing laundered clothes during the thirty days of mourning so as not to be unattractive to her husband?
Answer
The custom to forbid wearing laundered clothes during the thirty days applies even to a married woman. It is permissible to wear laundered clothes if someone else wears the garment, even for a short time. If that is not possible, throw it on the floor and step on it.
