Nylon Stockings

As a young lady growing up in the mid 1960's, it was a time of hope, expectation, adventure and dreams. Being given my first pair of nylon stockings for a Christmas present from my Mother and Father was their acknowledgement to me that they now considered me old enough to wear nylon stockings and to be considered an eligible young lady. It was so exciting!

I was a 'bush kid' which means I was a child raised on a Property in the Australian bush. Nothing unusual in that but what was different was that we were heading off on Boxing Day for our annual Christmas holidays and I had my first pair of stockings to wear to the local dances on the coast.

I spent most of that Christmas Day feeling the texture of the material as it ran through my fingers and with each slide, I had dreams of meeting and dancing with a very handsome "Mr. Right" whoever he might be. My dreams were as soft and silky as the fabric itself. Oh the hopes and dreams of a young Australian girl with her first pair of nylon stockings.

Many people particularly young girls may not be aware but at this time all women's stockings were worn with garter belts or suspenders. There was no such thing as pantihose or tights. It was either a full corset or suspender belts to hold the stockings up.

Pantihose or tights didn't come into existence in Australia until 1968. The first improvement to holding up stockings was the thigh-high glue-elasticised top which cut off circulation and caused many allergic reactions. Weeks later, the first pantihose were in the shops.

Now that time has moved on and garter belts and nylon stockings are a discarded thing of my past life, I can look back and still vividly remember the joy in being given my first pair of nylon stockings and the dreams and hopes I had with them. I cherished them immensely and took great care not to snag or ladder them because I knew it would be some time before I got another pair.

Fishnet Stockings

Have you ever really thought about why nylon fishnet stockings are called "fishnet stockings"? That's because that is precisely what they feel like when you wear them. They feel very holey and this makes a lady feel very 'unholy' to the point of absolute naughtiness.

Certainly, these stockings are not the most comfortable of garments to wear but they sure make a lady feel sexy. They are just downright cold to wear on a breezy day but they could encourage someone to provide a lady with a heap of warmth!

But fishnet stockings also stretch out of shape too quickly too simply because there is not enough fabric between the holes to keep them firmly in place over a couple of washings. So if you decide to invest in a pair, please be aware that they aren't designed to last forever.

Too many knee-bends when kneeling down will tend to make most brands sag. And saggy fishnet stockings really don't look too sexy.

That probably only applies anyway on the assumption that you have managed to stop them from being torn on the first wearing. Fine, flimsy, silky material is very hard to keep intact at the best of times and even harder to do so in the heat of the moment, so to speak.

To care for fishnet stockings between wearing them needs a bit of extra care. They need to be laundered by gently hand washing in a very mild detergent and rinsed extremely well taking great care not to stretch them in anyway. Fishnet stockings will stretch out of shape very quickly if pulled too hard in any direction. Dry them in a well-ventilated area by allowing them to drip-dry.

If storing in a drawer between usages, roll the stockings gently into a ball and place in a linen bag with a lavender sachet.
