Our Review

Certainly these are very classy hold up stockings.  The deep lacy top giving a very sexy finish to the sheer legs. Available in natural, black, ivory and white they would be ideal wedding hosiery.

Made in 5 sizes, buy the larger size if in doubt.

Soft and beautifully made, excellent even colour.

We made a slight error back in 2006 in assuming that because the size chart on the packet went up to size 5 there were 5 sizes.  We have now received a sample in size 8, which really is the biggest size.  Certainly the packet feels very heavy but all that weight is in the 14cm deep lace top.

The lace top is a good place to start our review.  It is a genuine piece of lace flat seamed to make a circle and seamed onto the sheer leg with another flat seam and and a deep lace fringe to hide the join.  At the top there are two silicone bands to grip the leg.  

The size chart suggests that beyond sizes 4 and 5 the allowance would be for more weight rather than more height but these a very long stockings that will easily reach the top of a 34” leg even if you have large feet.   This to our mind is the ideal way to wear hold ups as the silicone is at the very top of the leg.

Colour is perfectly even and the 20% Lycra provides for a great fit along with lots of stretch.

Pair with lace panties with a floral pattern and the combination with the lace tops will rival suspenders for sexual allure.

The hold ups for the taller girl.
