A century ago female stockings could show off with the
phenomenal triumph and fame. Being the garment then, today stockings is the
symbol of sexuality and somewhat fetish object. Sometime back Sigmund Freud stated
that stockings were the absolute sign of female allurement. The British
designer Mary Quant was the one who set aside the recognition of stockings with
women from all over the world. She is also the woman we owe to for mini skirts.
The stockings were replaced by pantyhose which were found comfortable to wear
under the shortest skirt without revealing the seams to public. And today the stockings
are rather the rare detail than the must-have for every modern woman.
Recently the stir about the mini skirts is tailed already, the
esteem of stockings declined and never came back. Though, the stockings are
still found the symbol of sexuality and most women prefer ordinary pantyhose to
alluring stockings. First, this is in regards to the realistic mind. Because of
the style, the stockings are far less comfortable for women and especially for
business women as compared with pantyhose. Today stockings come as stay-ups with
the elastic in the inner side of the band to hold the stockings on the thighs
as compared with reliable suspender belt and garters. Most women are likely to
appear in situation when the stocking was slipping down the thigh at the less
convenient minute for that.
Preliminary the stockings were supported with the special suspender
belt made from cotton, silk or nylon.
The suspender belt assumes several garters to the best
support of the stocking, from four by European brands to even eight ones as it
is assumed by the classic English standard. Today, however, in the time of
fitting close skirts and dresses, the classic design is the suspender belt with
garters that hold the stockings is far more uncomfortable. The silicone band is
visual under the delicate fabric or fitting clothes which is rather significant
problem as well as the trouble with distinguished underwear. The lingerie
manufacturers solved the problem by producing seamless underwear, though there
is no way out for suspender belts does, if not at least a puffy skirt is
recommended. Though the black suspender belt made from guipure lace with thin
and delicate elastic is the element of sexual appeal, a modern woman can hardly
afford wearing it with stockings. Not with business suit, definitely, this is a
customary office wear for most women today.
One more disadvantage when wearing stockings both with
silicone band and the suspender belt is the risk of blood supply impairment. Tight suspender belt or the elastic tighten
s thighs squeezing the blood vessels and violating the normal blood circulation
which brings to a variety of unpleasant symptoms like red marks and possibly
aggravating varicose veins.
Also bear in mind that stockings made from thin and delicate
nylon are not appropriate for the cold winter seasons though women regularly
forget about this absolute fact. In the meantime, wearing stockings in winter
time outside is the proved way to get chilled and the perfect elegant look in
stockings fraught with serious consequences, including cystitis.
Stockings
are cleaner and healthier while pantyhose tend to create a humid environment in
the crotch area. The pantyhose is convenient for not having to adjust
them as much, and the fact that they leave a smoother line under close-fitting
clothing is also essential.
Traditionally
stockings are the garment that easily makes an ordinary woman into the seductive
temptress. Today the world provides so many seductive tools for women to
arm that stockings is the least tool to use. Earlier stockings from the finest
nylon matched with ordinary closed dress will make a woman feel attractive and
sexual, today the low neck is getting lower and skirts are shorter.
As a
consequence, stockings lost the bygone value as the symbol of sexuality and
they are just plain sexual lingerie, nothing more.
