Are seamed stockings fashionable?

Seamed stockings, in particular, have a sophisticated and elegant look that imitated the screen sirens of the Hollywood era.

Are nylons out of style?

And know this: The sheer nylons and tights segment of the global hosiery market is predicted to grow by 2.1 percent over the next seven years. So whatever the politics, pantyhose are not going away.

Are Backseam tights work appropriate?

Back seam tights are a great alternative to your usual sheer tights, offering drama and sophistication without all the unwanted attention. The only pattern that you shouldn’t wear to the office is fishnets. They give off a risqué impression and are usually considered inappropriate to wear for work.

What kind of stockings should I wear to work?

Most people prefer going for simple plain stockings for work, rather than fashion stockings with back seams or fully fashioned stockings.

Would you wear FF seamed stockings to work?

I understand what you mean. FF seamed stockings are probably completely “nice”, but I don’t think I would ever wear them to work unless my skirt was below mid-calf. Unless the stockings and seams were very close to my skin color, and even then, I would probably think twice.

Do all stockings have a seam on the back?

Having a seam on your stockings is just where the flat-knit ‘fully fashioned’ nylon fabric was joined at the back. To be truly authentic, that seam must be a join – some seams are just sewn-in ‘fake’ mock seams. So, to think that the only stockings that can be called ‘fully fashioned’ are those with a seam and contrasting heel is a myth.

What are fully-fashioned stockings?

For one thing, fully-fashioned stockings really are ‘nylons’ in the traditional sense, being knitted from 100\% nylon yarn. Stocking aficionados will tell you it’s a completely different experience to wearing modern stretch hosiery, with a much smoother feel against the skin.
