Black diamond net thigh high stockings - hosiery by Coquette - review by Eva Schwaltz

The Diamond Net Thigh Highs from Coquette are packaged in a plastic wrapper with a cardboard insert with a bit of product information. Inside one of the thigh highs is a plain cardboard piece which needs to be taken out carefully as to not catch on the netting. The packaging can just be discarded as it isn't worth keeping.

I would wear these for going out in an all black outfit (dress or top and skirt) because these are just basically for show. They aren’t going to provide any warmth. The netting can get caught pretty easily so I would be careful about that. This type of netting is much larger than fishnet stockings. Each hole is about an inch across, but the toe area looks like fishnet. The netting doesn’t cause the skin to puff out at each hole since the netting itself is very stretchy, and it doesn’t give my legs a “muffin top”.

The band at the top of the thigh highs is nice and thick, but it doesn’t have any rubber to help them not slip. Unstretched, the band is 3 ¾” wide, and stretched it is 10” across.

I’m 5’1”, my thighs are 21” in circumference, and measuring on the inside, my legs are 26” long. For me, these stay up on their own, but if you are taller than 5’6” or have really long legs, garters may need to be your friend.

I stick to hand washing these, but you may be able to get away with placing them in a lingerie bag. The threading is quite thin, so they aren’t the most durable thigh highs out there, but you should be able to get a few fun nights with them. I keep these stored in my sock drawer so they don’t get snagged by my lingerie pieces.
