Seamed Stockings for 1940s and 1950s Day Wear Fashions
If you've worn modern champagne seamed stockings before, you'll probably have noticed that the seam isn't as visible as you might like. Surely, the whole point in wearing seamed nylons is that you can see the seam?
Modern nylons, including modern Fully Fashioned stockings, tend to be a lot sheerer than stockings of the 1940s and 1950s which means that the seam is not as prominent, especially if you're light-skinned and wearing a stocking to match your skin tone.
We've gone back to the drawing board with our champagne Glamour seamed stockings by adding a slightly darker, latte, seam. Combined with a flattering deep welt we hope you'll find them a great complement to your vintage daywear looks.

Fully Fashioned and RHT Stockings
Fully Fashioned and RHT stockings are made from none stretch nylon (although they do have a little mechanical stretch which means although the yarn is officially none stretch, there is some 'give'). This makes selecting the size far more critical than with modern hosiery which contains elastane or lycra for stretch.
They're stockings are made to fit the average dress sized 12 to 16 woman (8-12 US, 40-44 European). If you are smaller than this please try the size below, if larger please go up one size. Please do not be tempted to go up more than one size as these stockings are non stretch nylon and this will lead to wrinkly ankles!
