What’s the new trend ?  Step out with your stockings on show!

Yes, we’re serious! Stockings and hold-ups are set to make a big comeback this Spring as designers such as Sonia Rykiel, Dennis Basso, Zac Possen and John Richmond show them as outerwear on the latest S/S catwalks. Teamed with cocktail dresses and short, stocking-top-skimming skirts, this trend for showing a sexy set of pins is going to set pulses racing as we move into the warmer days of spring.

So who’s going to get this trend started? We bet if you’re from London, (the UK’s largest buyers of stockings) Glasgow, Nottingham, Manchester or Liverpool, then there’s a pretty good chance you’re going to buy into this trend as you’re from the cities that purchase the most stockings from us!  

Incidentally, Hold-ups are most popular in London, Glasgow, Birmingham and most surprisingly Lewes in East Sussex! – a hot spot for hold-ups!

This fashion trend isn’t for the faint-hearted! Follow in the footsteps of Taylor Momsen, Pixie and Peaches Geldof, Rihanna and Pixie Lott who have recently stepped out with their hold-ups proudly on show for all to see. 

“Stars such as Lily Allen, Sarah Harding and Frankie Sandford from The Saturdays have opted for a subtler version of the look wearing tights that look like stockings such as - Mock Stocks from Henry Holland for Pretty Polly. If you’re not confident enough to wear the real thing, then these are a great alternative.” – Have fun!

Tip – Don’t wear body lotion on your legs if you’re wearing hold-ups – the tops won’t grip as well and they’ll be down round your ankles – not the look were going for! J
