Body positivity, which calls for loving your body regardless of its size, is moving confidently through the world. In its wake, plump ladies finally began to get rid of self-doubt. Together with embarrassment, they finally throw away the dull black robes that have long hidden their appetizing forms, and look with curiosity towards spectacular, seductive outfits.
What could be sexier than stockings? The image of a playful beauty in stockings will never go out of style. If only because men don’t follow fashion, but they adore nylon on women’s legs. Any, even the most modest fat woman, dressed in a weightless accessory, becomes mysterious, seductive, and desirable.
Stockings are a formidable weapon. And it must be used extremely carefully, especially for women with curves. An incorrectly chosen model can turn delicious legs with curves into something shapeless. You need to choose based on your body type. Moreover, manufacturers have finally turned their attention to overweight women, and large stockings have ceased to be an unaffordable luxury.
A little history
The popularity of the accessory began to grow back in the 16th century, and all thanks to King Henry VIII, who was presented with a pair of stockings as a gift. Yes, imagine, dear women, at that time they were exclusively a men's accessory. Only a little later girls began to wear stockings.
Already during the reign of Elizabeth, representatives of the fair sex finally took away the right to wear stockings from men. Now this accessory has become a female item of clothing, and the opposite sex did not get upset, because you cannot imagine a more seductive element of underwear! For a long time, ladies decorated their garters with precious stones, ribbons and gold, giving their stockings even more sophistication and luxury.
Since 1938, stockings began to be made from synthetic fiber nylon. The DuPont company got seriously rich from this, because in just 1 year after the start of production it managed to sell more than 60 million pairs of nylon stockings! In those days, almost all stockings had “arrows” - a special seam that attracted even more attention from men to women’s legs.
In 1959, the first lycra stockings were released. Around this time, the popularity of stockings began to gradually subside, because practical and comfortable tights appeared on the market. Today, only 20% of women prefer stockings, but they undoubtedly make the right choice in favor of a seductive and sexy element of underwear.
How to wear it correctly?
In order not to tear the stocking before you even have time to put it on, and also to ensure that it fits correctly on your leg, you first need to gather it in your hands like an accordion from the elastic to the toe and then carefully pull it onto your leg to the thigh. On the thigh, the elastic should be evenly spread out so that there are no folds or creases. It is better to straighten the elastic band on a leg bent at the knee, while placing it on a chair or sofa.
You also need to know how to wear stockings. In no case should you allow the lace or hem of stockings, and especially part of the garter belt, to be visible from under your clothes. Stockings are underwear and strangers should not see them, even when bending over. Also, the contours of the stockings should not be visible under the fabric of the clothing. Therefore, if the stockings have voluminous lace, the skirt should be quite loose or made of dense fabric, and its length cannot be more than 8-10 cm above the knee. Stockings should not be worn under too-tight clothes made of thin fabrics or under trousers.
Stockings are worn only with shoes with heels. These can be either shoes or sandals. Stockings should not be worn with sports shoes, ballet shoes, or sandals; this is bad manners.
How to choose stockings when buying: what to look for?
Stockings are a special accessory that gives their owner only pleasant emotions. Even an unnoticeable hole or stretch can ruin the effect of such a seductive item of clothing. Therefore, you need to choose only the best quality stockings and not save on their purchase.
When choosing, it is recommended to give preference to well-known brands such as Charmante, OMSA, Filodoro, Philippe Matignon, Azira, Celsius and others. You also need to check the composition of the product. Its cost will be higher depending on the percentage of lycra content in the stockings. This elastic thread can turn an accessory into a second skin - just perfect!
Density plays an important role. Stockings from 40 DEN are suitable for cold weather. In the warm season, you can give preference to products with a low density - only 5-20 DEN.
When buying stockings, it is very important to choose the right size! A product that is smaller than necessary will tear at the heel and will not give the expected “pulling” effect. Whereas stockings that are too large will gather in unsightly folds and sag. A correctly selected size will fit well on the leg and look attractive.
If your legs are slightly plump, you should not buy fashionable models with mesh or patterns. They visually make the bottom heavier. Do you really want to buy something original? Then it is better to choose stockings with strict geometry along the entire height of the product.
Which color should I choose?
For plump girls, it is better to choose black or beige stockings, the optimal density of which is 15-25 denier. Such stockings will not only tighten your legs, reducing their volume, but also visually make your legs slimmer. If you wear black stockings of high density, then on the contrary, they will only emphasize existing flaws.
You can also buy gray or tan stockings, if you have the appropriate clothes and shoes in your wardrobe. White stockings are strictly prohibited from being worn outside or to the office. They are suitable for brides, photo shoots or erotic games in the bedroom, but not for going out.
You can choose stockings with a pattern, but then it should be a vertical geometric print or stripes. Women with curvy figures are not recommended to wear fishnet or fishnet stockings; they will only emphasize the excessive fullness of the legs and existing flaws.
Correctly selected stockings will suit any woman with any type and fullness of figure; you just need to take into account the recommendations and rules for choosing them given above.
How to wear stockings correctly and beautifully
There are several important rules of stocking etiquette - you need to familiarize yourself with them before putting on stockings:
– no one should know that stockings are on the legs! They should not be noticeable through clothing, so in this case tight and tight outfits would be completely inappropriate. Even when doing squats, the accessory should not be noticeable;
– for the office option, it is better to opt for transparent stockings in flesh or black color. Drawings, bright colors, textured and opaque bases are inappropriate;
– You can wear black stockings under a black skirt. But if the main outfit is lighter, you should not wear a black accessory;
– white stockings go perfectly with a wedding dress or... with a nurse’s uniform. All! Do you like light clothes? Choose flesh-colored stockings;
– the more elegant the shoes, the more transparent the stockings should be. You can wear a matte model with casual shoes;
– light shoes and dark stockings are bad manners. The color of the stockings should match the color of the shoes. In this case, transparent models suitable for;
– for an event you can wear thick opaque stockings with a knee-length dress or skirt. If the length of the outfit is below the knee, it is better to give preference to a transparent option.
Stockings are truly a pleasure, they make you feel special. When buying stockings for the first time, do not forget to choose a belt for them. Although some models with silicone elastic fit perfectly without this accessory.
Stockings in the modern sense appeared not so long ago, in the late 30s of the 20th century. This happened in the USA, and soon the product that caused the “fashion” revolution was sold in huge quantities - millions of pairs per day. Before this, stockings were made from silk, wool and cotton processed in special ways (fildekos and fildepers), but when the chemical company DuPont mastered the production of synthetic fiber - nylon, stockings from it appeared within a year. Since nylon stockings did not tear - “strong as steel” - were easily washed, lasted longer and fitted women’s legs more beautifully - thin as a spider’s web,” they quickly conquered the world, and were not even supplanted by tights - also a revolutionary product that allowed Ladies can wear miniskirts without any problems.
And a little more history
The true history of stockings is now little known, so you can often hear that women “took away” this item of “leg clothing” from the stronger sex. In the 18th century, thanks to the famous Madame de Pompadour, this happened, but about 2000 years earlier, ladies of ancient Greece wore stockings: they knew how to knit perfectly. During the “Dark Ages”, the ancient art was abandoned, and only in the 13th century did Europeans learn about stockings from the Arabs: then men began to wear stockings, attaching them to their belts with ribbons, and this continued until the end of the 16th century - then garters were invented.
Since the middle of the 19th century, both men and women wore stockings, but no one saw women’s stockings, even “out of the corner of their eye”: it was considered very indecent. Everything changed during the First World War: women were forced to take on men's responsibilities, learn new professions, and long dresses that interfered with movement had to be shortened. Soon, garter belts came into fashion as a separate item of clothing: before that, they were part of a corset.
In Russia (especially in the USSR), good stockings, like then tights, were rare: they were brought from abroad, “obtained” with difficulty and cherished for years - not even torn ones were thrown away.
Why are stockings back?
It would seem that stockings, as an inconvenient and impractical item of clothing, should “become a thing of the past”: after all, there are tights - they are warmer, you can safely wear mini ones, they perfectly tighten problem areas, etc. Of course, stockings should not be worn in cold weather or with short skirts, and there is no point in doing so. They have a different “mission”: to arouse interest, attract, seduce, captivate, bewitch and enchant those around them, and men - above all. And in this regard, tights are clearly inferior to stockings.
With the help of a pair of stylish stockings, worn “in the right place and at the right time,” a woman can attract attention, “get” the desired man, revive “cooled” romantic relationships and even achieve success in business.
Stockings, especially models with silicone tapes, do not restrict movement, and when visiting the ladies' room they do not need to be removed (it is difficult to find a woman whose tights have not torn at least once while pulling them up). By the way, in our time, many organizations and institutions have a strict professional dress code, and women are prohibited from working with bare legs even in the summer heat: light and thin stockings in this case serve as an excellent alternative to tights.
How to choose the right stockings
First of all, you need to take your size. Some ladies tend to choose smaller stockings to fit their legs more tightly, while others, on the contrary, buy a size larger “to make it easier to put on” - both approaches are wrong. When choosing, you should use tables, but also don’t forget about your own characteristics: body structure can be different. Stockings that are not chosen according to size will either droop or bunch up, and will tear faster on your feet, and you will feel uncomfortable and constrained in them.
You should also not buy stockings of any color - “as long as you like it”: a color that “does not suit” not only makes the image “crumpled”, but can also highlight figure flaws.
For example, light beige shades (also called nude) are considered universal and suitable for any time of year. The smoky gray color is perceived in approximately the same way - it even “slims” too full legs.
But it is no coincidence that white stockings are considered an option for special occasions; more precisely, most women wear them only with a wedding dress. True, ladies with ideally shaped legs can wear them on other occasions, but the rest are better off refraining: the white color clearly reveals all the defects and imperfections.
Black stockings are generally not the best choice. Full legs in them become even more massive, and thin legs seem thin. But transparent black stockings, including fishnet ones, are good for slender legs: they perfectly emphasize their advantages.
As for quality, you shouldn’t skimp on it. You don’t have to buy super expensive stockings, but they shouldn’t be cheap either, unless you want to throw them away after wearing them just a few times, or maybe even once. Choose well-known brands that use high-quality raw materials and modern technologies, and the stockings will last you a long time, and your legs will look amazing in them. Interestingly, good stockings have a subtle and pleasant aroma - do not hesitate to smell the product when purchasing.
Stockings with a round seam (if you choose with a seam) are cheaper, but they are not always comfortable: the seam can leave a mark on the skin and even cause irritation, and it is better not to wear them with a very tight dress. The flat seam does not protrude above the surface of the stocking and is almost invisible to the touch: in such stockings you can feel comfortable and natural.
The thickness of the stockings is selected according to what time of year, when and where you will wear them. It has already been said that in cold weather it is better to wear tights, but tastes and situations vary, so very thick stockings are also produced - for example, 300 den: they are called over-the-knee stockings.
What can I do to keep my stockings from falling off?
Large girls must accept the fact that for some reason the stockings don't hold up as well on them as they do on skinny girls. Here are some tips to ensure that the accessory fits snugly on your feet and does not cause discomfort:
- The width of the elastic must be at least 8 cm, otherwise the product will not be able to securely attach to full hips and will slide down the legs or curl into a tube.
- Expensive models have higher quality silicone rubber. The tighter the silicone sits on the skin, the better the stockings hold on.
- The best assistant for securing stockings is a belt with elastic bands. Many people find it inconvenient, but it’s just a matter of choosing the right model. The more straps on the belt, the better. Particular attention should be paid to the fittings: fastening clips should be made of metal. Plastic behaves unpredictably and often breaks. The belt is also suitable for those whose skin itches from silicone Velcro.
- The more Lycra in the material, the tighter the fit. In addition, lycra has a tightening effect and visually reduces the volume of the legs.
- Specialized stores sell fixing gel. Externally, it looks like a roll-on deodorant. To use it, you need to put on stockings, unscrew the silicone and apply the gel to the skin. Then return the elastic to its place and wait a minute for it to secure.
- Stockings should be worn on dry, untreated legs. Silicone does not adhere if cream or lotion is applied to the skin.
- Silicone sticks better if the skin of your feet is warm. After putting on the stockings, you need to sit for a while so that the elastic warms up. For the same reason, you should not wear them if it is cool outside (and it is also harmful to your health).
How to put on stockings correctly
Stockings are worn with or without a belt; in the first case, you should first put on a belt. The skin of the feet should be smooth and moisturized - use a special cream; nails are smooth and neat. The same applies to hands: if they are rough, with nails with hangnails, the stockings will not last long; as a last resort, wear thin knitted seals. All jewelry should also be removed.
The stocking is taken with both hands, calmly and carefully “collected” all the way to the sock, the toes are placed in the sock so that everything is even. Then, if there is a heel, “put” it in place - the seam, if there is one, should run in the middle of the heel - and slowly pull the stocking up, gradually straightening it on the leg. It is generally better to wear seamed stockings in front of a mirror. If you see that it turns out unevenly, do not try to straighten everything “as you go”: pull the stocking down and pull it up again, and then check it again, and only then, if necessary, fasten the stockings to the belt.
Or... the seductive nature of stockings
Despite the fact that for our climate, stockings often seem, to put it mildly, a strange item of clothing, they are always available in the hosiery departments and can always be seen tightly hugging beautiful female legs. What is the secret of this amazing thing?
We all know that stockings excite the mind of every man. Psychologists attribute this to the fact that women’s legs are perceived by the stronger half of humanity as a direct path to the genitals, therefore, stockings for them are a symbol of provocation, excitement, and pleasure. It's all about fantasy: a man, knowing that his woman is wearing stockings, immediately begins to imagine the place where the nylon or nylon fabric gives way to smooth skin, and gets excited.
Knowing about this trick, a woman, putting on stockings, can play on men's feelings and get no less pleasure than her partner. For intimate games, she can wear them with or without underwear and a sexy special belt. In addition, during lovemaking you don’t have to take off your stockings...
Stockings appeared many decades ago, when there were no tights yet. They were worn by everyone: from young fashionistas to older ladies. With the advent of a more practical accessory for insulation, however, stockings have by no means lost their popularity: they are used along with tights and have received an additional fetish function.
The selection of stockings at retail is simply huge! You can always find what interests you: with or without elastic, thin or thick, smooth, openwork or mesh, any color, with or without a pattern, for any height and body type. The choice will always be yours!
Stockings without elastic means that they will be attached to a special belt. However, according to experienced people, you need to be careful with such things: some stockings will not fit tightly around the leg, they will wrinkle and hang down. The result will be the image of a Soviet granny, not a sexy cat.
Stockings with elastic can be worn either under a belt or on their own. Thanks to the beautiful lace insert with silicone, they will fit perfectly on your feet and will not crawl away. Some girls say that their feet sweat under the elastic, and therefore they are forced to choose options without elastic.
The most winning colors have always been, are and will be transparent, brown of various shades and black. Flesh and brownish colors go with any clothes and will be appropriate in any situation, and black, among other things, playing on the contrast of dark color and white skin, will turn on any man. And ineptly chosen colors can only cause laughter, if we talk about blue, for example.
Fishnet stockings create the image of a bad girl, and the larger the mesh, the worse the girl. Therefore, in everyday life it is better to avoid them or use a fine mesh if it does not contradict your image.
The most appropriate and always relevant design on stockings and tights is, oddly enough, an arrow running right through the center of the back of the leg. Its advantage is that it visually makes the legs longer, corrects their shape, and hides skin defects.
Having considered the nature of stockings and realizing that they are perhaps the most seductive invention of mankind, we can only advise every woman to have at least one pair in her closet in order to be ready at any moment to use a weapon that strikes on the spot. This is especially true for those who want it right now!
A woman's wardrobe involves the presence of many different things that differ in function. But stockings are rightfully recognized as his sexiest item. They are capable of making any woman the most attractive and helping a man to like her. But many ladies are skeptical about stockings.

First of all, do not forget that ideal stockings should fit in size. But for many women this seems an impossible task. They will be happy to learn how to choose. This is done based on height and weight, as in the case of regular tights. On each package you will see a table where these data are listed horizontally and vertically. All you have to do is select your parameters and see what size is at the intersection of the two lines you are looking for. In addition, the size of the foot is of great importance. In any case, when you come to the store, you should not forget about the individual characteristics of your own body: the fullness of your legs, their length, and others. Choosing the right size is very important, since tight stockings will cause discomfort, and loose stockings will constantly slide down your leg.

After all, women who prefer short dresses, skirts or tight-fitting clothes in everyday life, according to stylists, should still give preference to tights. Otherwise, you really risk earning a reputation as a lady who is free in her behavior.

It is recommended to wear them with open sandals. For serious events, you can choose classic black stockings. And for fashionable get-togethers and stylish parties, stockings with sparkles or patterns are now being produced.
Pay attention to the entire clothing ensemble. It should not be lighter than the stockings. The ideal option is if they match tone on tone. If the skirt is below the knees, then sheer stockings are needed, and if above the knees, then opaque stockings are needed. As you can see, there are plenty of nuances, so you will have to work hard to look really stylish.
How to wear stockings? It is important to remember that they are not just another accessory, they should bring a truly special feeling. You should choose high quality over cheap. After all, stockings that have a low price are likely to quickly tear, and snags or holes will form on them. It’s better to pay the normal amount once, and then enjoy a successful purchase for a long time. They remain salable if you don’t often wear them under boots, because zippers and fasteners leave unsightly marks on them.
How to wear stockings? You need to adequately evaluate your own appearance. If you have full legs, then you should not buy mesh or fishnet stockings. After all, you don't want your lower limbs to look like they've been pulled together by a thread. The maximum that is considered acceptable for you: stockings without a pattern or those with a strict geometric pattern.
A woman should always treat herself with love. And stockings are the highest manifestation of respect for one’s beauty and attractiveness.
You just need to clarify how to wear stockings correctly so that they become firmly established in your wardrobe. The range of models today is almost limitless, and finding several successful pairs is not difficult.
The opinion that these models are intended for special occasions and are not very practical in everyday life is slightly outdated. Along with the fashion for refined feminine looks, stockings have also returned to trends - as a characteristic and stylish detail of outfits in this vein.
How to choose the size?
Stockings, even the most elastic ones, cannot stretch indefinitely. To ensure they fit like a glove, you only need to buy your size. Too small ones pull on curvy hips, forming unsightly rolls over the elastic band. In addition, fabric that is stretched too tightly will quickly tear. Models that are larger than necessary slide down and hang in folds.
Each package of stockings contains a grid of sizes. Manufacturers offer to select the one you need in one of the following ways:
- based on height and weight. Based on their ratio, the appropriate size is determined using the table. It is designated by letters from XS to XXL (where XXL is the largest), or by numbers from 1 to 6;
- taking into account the size of the foot and the suitable length of the product. The length is marked with letters. S – short models, barely covering the knee, M – 10 centimeters above the knee, L – long, covering half the thigh;
- in order to choose compression stockings (they are indicated for women with varicose veins), you need to know the circumference of the thighs, calves and legs.
The selection is complicated by the fact that, firstly, with the same letter designations, the length varies among manufacturers. Secondly, the elasticity of products, their ability to stretch, is influenced by the composition of the material. Because of this, even the thinnest girls sometimes have to take models a couple sizes larger.
Those with full legs should especially take these factors into account, otherwise they risk not fitting the stockings where they should be fastened - on the hips.
The surest, albeit rather expensive, way to decide on the appropriate size is to purchase models from different companies and choose the right ones.
How to properly wear a garter belt with a bow
It would seem that there is nothing easier than choosing the right ones and wearing these models with pleasure. But there are still some features that distinguish them from tights. On a belt or elastic? Let's take a closer look.
Models with silicone tape are practical, comfortable and very easy to wear. But you should not lose sight of the option of wearing it with a belt - special models are designed for this - without elastic, but with a dense and wide welt at the top.
How to wear stockings with a belt? To begin with, choose a belt that fits perfectly, with the ability to adjust not only the volume at the waist and hips, but also the length of the garters. This is especially important if you have a curvy figure - simple elastic belts are only suitable for those with slender hips. In any case, the belt should be perfectly suited to your individual parameters.
How to wear a garter belt correctly? First of all, as very sexy lingerie. It is absolutely not necessary to achieve a single stylistic solution for the entire set of underwear. Choose beautiful color combinations and successful styles. How exactly to wear it depends only on the characteristics of your figure.
Classic models with a precise fit along the waistline are the most feminine option, but if you use a belt as a decorative element, then thin and narrow models that slightly cover the hips will look beautiful.
Of course, such models should not be used in combination with clothes in everyday, let alone sporty style. But all the current feminine trends in women's fashion go perfectly with such lingerie.
How to choose?
The most popular model of stockings among modern women are stockings with braid or lace edges and silicone elastic under them, due to which these stockings stay on the leg. There are a number of nuances that make it difficult for overweight ladies to choose this item of clothing. But this does not mean at all that wearing stockings is an unaffordable luxury for such women. Everything is not so irreparable, if you take into account the features of the figure and the specifics of the model range of stockings.
What to look for when choosing?
- Size is what you need to choose first. Despite the fact that stockings are produced in very large sizes, their length varies depending on the manufacturer, which means that, when stretched out on the leg, they may not reach the thigh, where they should be attached. Often this forces thin girls to take stockings one or two sizes larger. In this case, the only way out is to try several stockings from different companies and choose the most suitable one among them. You should not take stockings even one size smaller. Firstly, there is a chance that they will tighten the leg too much and what should be hidden under the elastic will hang over it. Secondly, a stocking of a smaller size that is pulled too tightly may tear much earlier than a stocking that is selected to fit.
- Width of elastic band. For girls with full legs, it is better to take stockings with an elastic band at least 8-10 centimeters wide. Otherwise, they will slip or roll down on the leg.
- Silicone quality. This is also an important factor. The quality of the silicone rubber bands determines how tightly they will stick to the skin, and therefore how tightly the stocking itself will hold.
- Garter belt. Those with curvy figures should pay attention to this piece of women's underwear. Although this accessory is rarely used nowadays, it will be an ideal assistant for keeping stockings on full legs. It is better to choose a model that has six or more garters.
- The amount of lycra in the stockings also plays a big role. The more it is, the greater the tightening effect they have, thereby, albeit not much, but still reducing the volume of the legs and hiding imperfections.
If a woman is ready to wear a garter belt, then she should turn her attention to models without elastic bands. You can buy such stockings made of silk; they look very beautiful, sexy and piquant and at the same time quite durable. Their only disadvantage is that they do not tighten the leg at all, since they do not contain lycra.
How to wear Velcro stockings on full legs
Elastic bands with silicone Velcro strips have become an excellent alternative to belts and garters; wearing stockings with Velcro is usually easier. This option is absolutely easy to use even for every day. But at the same time, such models can also be worn with a belt, especially if you want to enhance the sex appeal of your lingerie.
Wearing such models is a pleasure. To reliably strengthen the elastic and not worry that it will fail at the most inopportune moment, avoid putting stockings on legs that have just been lubricated with cream or lotion. The skin should be dry and clean. By the way, such models are perfect for overweight ladies who often complain about the insufficient selection of beautiful lingerie.
There are no special rules for wearing stockings on full legs. By the way, in many cases they are much more comfortable than tights. Choose models with a wide elastic band that has not one, but two or three silicone bands attached. And pay attention to the length of the models, the longer it is, the more comfortable you will be.
Do not try to pull the stockings as high as possible; adjust exactly the height that is comfortable for your body type. But then choose the right hem length for your dress or skirt. It should overlap the elastic by at least 20-30 centimeters, but you shouldn’t get carried away with too modest “floor-length” lengths either. Watch this video, and the question “how to wear stockings correctly” will not remain unanswered.
Which stockings are suitable for full legs?
Stockings for women of significant merit, which are available for sale, differ from stockings for thin women only in size. Large ladies have to take into account some nuances on their own in order to adjust their figure and create a harmonious image.
- No brilliant options. These stockings reflect light, increasing the already considerable volume. Moreover, shimmer draws attention to the legs, and not every overweight woman likes this.
- White color, especially dense, will definitely add several kilograms to your legs. White stockings are appropriate only in the bedroom, at a costume party and as part of a wedding dress.
- Thick matte dark-colored stockings, contrary to popular belief, do not make you look slimmer, but, on the contrary, make you heavier and emphasize the features of your legs, including those that women would not want to emphasize.
- An ideal option for curvy ladies are models in tan, translucent black, blue, smoky, and slate colors. If you choose the right shoes for them, you can get the ideal line of your legs and adjust your silhouette.
- Large, bright and contrasting designs and horizontal patterns add volume. Dense legs will be decorated with small vertical prints, dim screw patterns that go around the leg.
- Spicy models with a back seam lengthen and make moderately plump legs thinner. A seam on overly full, sculpted legs will only highlight the flaws.
- Fishnet models look tacky on larger women. If you can’t, but really want to, the mesh should be small and light, like a thin cobweb.
- If a girl likes to wear stockings with elastic bands, a belt in the form of a wide strip of dense, stretchy material will help to make her look slimmer.
