==Getting Dressed==
# It is important to maintain a level of modesty at all times even at night. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 2:1 writes that a standard of modesty is needed at all times since Hashem’s presence fills the entire world always. </ref> Therefore, one should not reveal areas that are usually covered even when getting dressed, unless it is necessary. <ref> S”A 2:1 writes that one should get dressed while under the blanket and not get up and then get dressed. Mishna Brurah 2:1 writes that this idea applies in general that one should not reveal the areas usually covered unless it is necessary. Iggerot Moshe YD 3:47:3 says that if this would cause a person discomfort they would not need to do this. </ref>
