It describes the phenomenon called anisotropic reflection. Stockings do this big time. Rather than me explain all the details - that article covers it very well. We'll be using the Poser Anisotropic specular node to do that effect. Chris's shaders above are very good, but missing this key effect. Chris also didn't do anything about the sparkly/glittery effect. I'll be back.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
