Vintage stockings or retro stockings give you the classic 1920's look as seen at places like the Goodwood Revival. Vintage stockings have a sexiness and femininity that is hard to forget, they normally come with a back seam and some brands like Gio Stockings still make these on the original 1920 machines.
Vintage stockings might just be the most gorgeous, exciting, and interesting type of leg wear we have ever worn. They are the thing that people are perhaps more enthusiastic about that anything else for the world of hosiery, and vintage stockings have acquired a fan base that is rivaled by little else. But what makes these designs the objects of desire that they are? What is so special about them over other types of old school design? Let's take a look.
Why Are Vintage Stockings So Popular?
The simple answer might be that they are so very flattering. They have a sexiness and femininity that is hard to forget. Most authentic vintage stockings come with a back seam, for example. This makes them extra sexy as backseam stockings lengthen your legs and draw attention to your natural curves. But even if they are not a backseam item, they are still so much more feminine than most anything else you include in your outfit. Black stockings, for example, are simply stunning, even without any patterns or seams. They are classy, sophisticated, and have an authentic look tho them that makes them so much more appealing than much of the modern fashion scene.
