Self-supporting stockings: what do you need to know about them?

They ignite imagination, accentuate the beauty of legs, and are suitable for many different occasions. Our clients particularly prefer self-supporting stockings. What are their most important features? And which model should you choose?

What are self-supporting women's stockings?

Stockings, as their name suggests, do not require support with a garter belt like traditional models. They adhere to the skin using a special silicone strip sewn into the upper edge. The silicone fits very well on the skin and ensures that the stocking will not slip.

Self-supporting stockings are a relatively new product; they were created with women's comfort and quick styling in mind.

Who do we recommend self-supporting stockings to?

• Self-supporting stockings are primarily a very good alternative to tights, especially on hot days. They provide greater breathability while accentuating the beauty of the legs and giving them an elegant look.
• You should also consider self-supporting stockings if you decide to pair them with a fitted outfit. Garter belt stockings or tights can show around the hips, while self-supporting stockings are a perfect fit for a dress. Since they end at the thigh, they do not show under tight clothing.
• Self-supporting stockings are also an indispensable element of a date night outfit – if you want to ignite your partner's imagination. Paired with sexy lingerie or a bodysuit, they will allow you to create a breathtaking ensemble.

Self-supporting stockings – which ones to choose?

Self-supporting stockings, like tights, are subject to many trends. Finding a model in your favorite color or pattern will certainly not be a problem. Especially if you decide to buy them in our online boutique.

We present the most fashionable self-supporting stocking proposals that will appeal to most ladies.

Classic black self-supporting stockings

Perfect for many occasions, black stockings are a universal choice. They will work great under a little black dress or an office skirt, ensuring comfort and freedom.

Beige self-supporting stockings

Referring to old fashion, beige self-supporting stockings are making a comeback. Trendsetters combine them with heavy black shoes like loafers and Doc Martens. This is also an interesting option for all brides.

Patterned women's stockings

Patterned stockings? Why not! The most fashionable models feature dots, hearts, and stars. Stockings with a seam, which optically slim the legs, are also an interesting option.

How to wear self-supporting stockings?

In most situations, self-supporting stockings will be difficult to distinguish from tights. When using them, you can therefore follow the same rules. If you decide to wear stockings, however, remember a few tips:

• Self-supporting stockings fit best on dry skin, not previously moisturized with lotion or cream.
• Put on stockings slowly and carefully to avoid snags.
• After putting on the stockings, check that they are put on symmetrically.
• Do you want to look tasteful? Remember that the upper part of the stockings should not be visible. Otherwise, you may achieve a vulgar result. If you want to adorn your legs and show a little skin at the same time, over-the-knee socks will be a better choice.

What characterizes the best self-supporting stockings?

The best self-supporting stockings are not only beautiful but also durable. The combination of synthetic fibers gives them resistance to snags and stretching. After prolonged use, they do not stretch out at the knees. It is worth choosing models with reinforcement on the toe part.

Also pay attention to the upper band of the stockings. Underneath it, there should be at least a few silicone strips that will hold the stocking in place. The support band can be "masked" with impressive lace.
