Baci fishnet pantyhose - pantyhose discontinued by Baci - review by darthkitt3n

As my collection of lingerie expands, I’m always looking at new stockings and pantyhose to wear. I prefer pantyhose over stockings and definitely like to have a bit of color. I decided to try the Baci fishnet pantyhose in hot pink, mainly because the price is pretty low for a pair of pantyhose. These are a one size fits most piece and come in white, nude, hot pink, and purple. I wanted to purchase the purple pair as well, but they’re always out of stock.

The pantyhose come in a small paperboard envelope similar to most stocking and pantyhose packaging. The front and back show a model wearing the pantyhose. The back states these are one size fits most. They are made of 100% nylon. Care instructions are: hand wash in cold water, do not bleach, and line dry. The pantyhose are designed in Paris and made in Taiwan. The packaging can be okay for storage if you want to be able to quickly distinguish all of your stockings and pantyhose from each other. If you do not wish to keep the packaging, it can be recycled.



The first thing I noticed right out of the packaging is that these do not return to their original shape when removed. Inside the packaging they have a large piece of paperboard slid inside of them. This is common with pantyhose as it shows what the fabric looks like when it’s stretched out a bit. I guess it probably also helps with packaging. When I removed the piece of paperboard, the pantyhose remained very stretched out in that area. I was expecting these to not return to their original shape, though, due to the lack of spandex in the material content. Adding spandex allows the nylon to be more form-fitting and keeps it from looking bulgy in different areas.



These are pretty simple pantyhose. They are made of just hot pink fish net with a hot pink elastic waistband. They do not have a backseam or reinforced netting on the toe area. There is no control top or panty liner. The only seam on them is at the toe area. The elastic band measures approximately half an inch wide. Compared to other fish net stockings and pantyhose, these feel a bit softer than most. However, the netting feels more delicate than the netting on other pairs I have tried. Even a small snag may cause a rip in the netting.

Size Chart (One Size Fits Most):
Dress size: 2 – 14
Waist: 24 – 32 inches
Hip: 34 – 40 inches
Weight: 90 – 160 pounds

I fit within the size chart indicated by Baci. I wear anywhere from 5 to 8 in dress size, have a waist of 27 inches, and my hips measure 35 inches. I’m 5’8” tall and weigh about 140 pounds. When I put these on the fishnet felt very loose against my skin. Usually fishnet works to kind of hold you in and shape your legs a bit. These did nothing for my legs. Some areas of the fishnet appeared outright baggy and this was on my first time wearing them. I had to pull the waist up to the narrowest part of my waist, which is about 6 inches below my bust, just to get these to not sag as much in the crotch. With the pantyhose yanked up so high, the crotch only sags about 2 inches or so. If these sit where I usually feel comfortable with jeans or skirts sitting, the crotch sags at least 5 inches. I am actually able to pull the waistband all the way up to my bust.

I do not care for the waistband at all. It’s cheap elastic and causes a slight muffin top. It does not feel comfortable at all during wear and can leave red marks on skin.

I noticed I am unable to even out the size of the netting on my legs. Usually it’s pretty simple to adjust the fabric a bit to get the holes in the netting even in size. Unfortunately plenty of adjusting did not even these out. The netting looks much tighter on my feet than it does on my thighs. Every time I tried to adjust them, they just slid back down to where they were.

I feel these would definitely fit individuals much larger than me. The netting has a ton of extra room and feels it could easily accommodate a woman who is both taller and much larger than me. I think if you’re 5’5” or shorter these should be avoided. There’s just too much length to the pantyhose for them to sit all too comfortably on a shorter body.

Compared to the photos of the model, the netting looks much larger on me. The photos are really a poor representation of what you’re receiving. The model’s pantyhose look perfect: formfitting, sleek, and they sit perfectly on her.

I agree with the manufacturer’s care instructions. I doubt these would make it through the washing machine in one piece. The material just isn’t sturdy enough. I recommend gently hand washing them in a sink and allowing them to drip dry indoors. I would avoid wringing out the material when done washing. These can be stored however you like. I prefer to keep them in the packaging for ease of locating them in my pile of stockings and pantyhose.

I’m definitely not impressed with these pantyhose. I recommend spending a bit more money and getting a nicer pair of pantyhose. I can see these only lasting through a few wears before they look like absolute crap. This is my second or third Baci purchase and so far I am not impressed by the company. Considering the price, though, I can’t really expect miracles out of these.

I give the pantyhose 3 out of 5 stars for being average in quality for the price.

I'm still not a fan of these pantyhose. The quality is terrible. I suppose you really get what you pay for. Unfortunately Eden currently doesn't have any other cute colors for fishnets, aside from red.
