There are a lot of different types of nylons out there…
…but there are way too few women in this world wearing stockings. Why is this? When you are walking on the streets I think we can all agree that the number of women wearing stockings is not particularly high. Bare legs or trousers seem to be the fashion these days. Women of today are becoming de-feminised, wearing less sexy clothes and attempting to be more like men. When seeing a celebrity they are ALWAYS bare legged, and of course people want to be like them. Eventually, however, even these women will want to feel feminine again, and they will come around. Fashions change. And while this is the 21st century, stockings still sell, even if only to a minority.
My primary intention for this blog is to make a place for nylon lovers and eventually try to get more women wearing nylon stockings or pantyhose. I will start off by giving you a small terminology introduction:
TIGHTS = Pantyhose that go up to the waist
STOCKINGS = Go up to the thigh only
HOLD-UPS = Stockings that stay up with elastic
DROP DOWNS = The straps that are on garter belt
CUBAN HEEL = Reinforced heel on the back of stockings
FF = Fully Fashioned stockings. 100% nylon that doesn’t stretch
RHT = Reinforced heel and toe
FRENCH KNICKERS = Panties in the form of boy shorts with lace
LADDERS = Runs in stockings
SUSPENDERS = Garter belts
BRACES = Suspenders for men
TROUSERS = Pants or slacks
VINTAGE = Old style stockings in original (unopened) packaging
Words of the day:
“Fashion is for followers,
Style is for individuals”
