Stockings

When you want to bring a touch of sophistication to your underwear, women’s stockings are the place to start. While tights are practical picks for everyday wear, sexy lingerie stockings are your go-to for special-occasion dressing. Explore our collection to discover designs from trusted brands such as Pour Moi and Wolford.

Just like sheer tights, lightweight 5-denier and 10-denier stockings have a barely there feel. We have classic black shades as well as nude hues to suit all skin tones. These conceal minor blemishes and ensure you enjoy even colour. Go natural with matt finishes or add some shine with glossy pairs. As we have unfussy or embellished stockings in our selection, you can keep things simple or up the ante on glamour. Look for eye-catching elements, including lacy tops, back seams and ribbon detailing. Contrasting flashes of red, as well as fishnet textures, give our ladies’ stockings and sexy hold-ups a classic feel.

To put together an alluring lingerie look, combine your stockings with a set of suspenders. These feature lots of intricate details – think mesh panels, scalloped edges and basque-style lacework. Adjustable straps help you find your perfect fit. Matching sexy thongs and sexy bras complete the picture. Time to refresh your hosiery options? We have lots of choices, including versatile nude tights and flattering black tights for women. Weights from 5-denier to fully opaque are on hand to wear with everything from women’s skirts to party dresses.

Stockings FAQs

What is the difference between tights and stockings?

A pair of stockings is made to come up to the middle of your thighs. They’re finished with a deep cuff, so you can fasten them to a suspender belt to hold them securely in place. In contrast, a pair of tights will cover your bottom, your tummy and the whole of your leg – all the way down to your toes.

What is the difference between stockings and hold-ups?

Stockings aren’t designed to stay up on their own – they need to be worn with a suspender belt to hold them in place. This gives a stylish, vintage-inspired look. Meanwhile, hold-ups come with silicone and elasticated bands around the cuff at the top. That means they hug close to your leg and remain securely in position. Both traditional stockings and hold-ups will give the same effect of leaving the top of your leg bare.

Can you wear stockings with a dress?

Yes, you can wear stockings with a dress. It’s worth considering the length of the skirt, especially when you’re sitting down. If you’ve chosen a form-fitting piece, you might want to choose hold-ups rather than stockings to avoid having the suspender buttons showing through. You can choose sheer pairs for an understated effect, or add interest with patterned or coloured stockings.
