Nude lace top fishnet - thigh highs discontinued by DreamGirl - review by SMichelle

Let me begin by saying that I have the worst luck with stockings. They either don't fit me right, or they tear right out of the package. Despite my bad luck, I LOVE how stockings look---especially fishnets. I had just about given up the search for the perfect pair of fishnets when I stumbled upon these nude fishnet stockings by Dreamgirl. I think my search has finally found a happy ending!


What's Included:
When you purchase this item, you will receive the thigh high stockings. One for each leg. They are not connected to one another in any way.


Where To Wear:
The great thing about these stockings is that you can wear them anywhere, and still look good.

I have worn these with casual dresses to add a hint of subtle elegance. I have also worn these with fancier dresses to special occasions. You could also probably wear these underneath pants to add an extra layer of warmth, if you really needed to -- though I personally have not used these for that purpose.

My absolute favorite way of wearing these is to pair them with lingerie, and a great pair of heels. I find that it makes for a very sexy look.

If you do choose to wear these as lingerie, you'll be happy to know that they can easily be left on during sex. Just keep in mind that they may tear if you're overly rough while we're wearing them.

One other thing -- when I do where these, I tend to find that I need a garter belt. This is because these stockings do sometimes roll down. Not always, just occasionally. Thankfully garter belts look really sexy with these stockings.


Material:
These are made out of 100% Nylon. The fishnet portion of the stocking feels very soft to the touch -- so soft that I found it difficult to avoid stroking my own legs while wearing these. The lace tops are also soft, just not quite as soft as the fishnet. Both the lace and the fishnet are extremely flexible, so these should fit a wide variety of sizes.

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that these don't itch at all. The material is so comfortable on my legs that they feel almost like a second skin to me.


Cleaning and Storage:
In order to keep these in good condition, you should wash them in cold water, and then hang them to dry. You do not want to use bleach with these.

As far as storing goes, I would recommend putting them inside a plastic bag, and then storing them in a drawer.

Sizing:
These are available in One Size Fits Most, or Plus (Queen) Size. I ordered the plus size, as I know that I do have fairly thick thighs.

The packaging provides us with very little information regarding sizing. It simply states 165lbs to 275lbs for weight. Honestly, weight is a terrible way of telling if stockings will fit, as someone can easily weigh 165+ and still have fairly thin thighs, if they carry their weight on their upper body. Anyway, I'm at the low end of that weight range. These stockings do fit me very well.

At the widest point, my thigh is around 26" around. The stockings could easily stretch to at least 30" around.

What about length? Well, really, I see these as being able to fit a wide variety of heights. I'm 5'6", and these can stretch ALL the way up my legs. I mean, literally, I can make it so that these touch my bum. For me, that means that these stretched all the way to around 34" in length. If not for my bum being in the way, I could've easily stretched these further. I usually end up wearing these about mid-thigh length, and they still look good -- despite the fact that they're not fully stretched. Stretching them all the way just opens up the fishnet more.

Packaging:
These come packaged in cardboard, and then wrapped in plastic inside of the cardboard case. The cardboard case is not discreet as there is a topless woman pictured on both the front and back of it. Once you open the cardboard case, and open the plastic, you'll find that one of the stockings has a piece of cardboard inside of it. Simply pull the cardboard insert out, and these are ready to wear.

I wouldn't recommend saving the packaging for storage. Firstly, it just takes up more room than is needed. Secondly, the packaging is kind of a pain.

Quality:
All in all, these are great quality! I do, however, wish that the toe and heel were reinforced. As they're not, I could see these ripping fairly easily.

These fishnets have gotten a lot of use, and they still appear in great condition.

It's really too bad that these were discontinued, as they are the best pair of stockings I have ever had the pleasure of wearing.
