Historical Accuracy: In the 1940s and 1950s, nearly every woman wore skin tone seamed hosiery daily. Our design replicates this look with meticulous attention to detail. While most modern 'nude on nude' seamed tights have nearly invisible seams, we've crafted ours with a slightly darker latte seam, mimicking the more pronounced seams of vintage stockings.

Versatile Styling:
- Ideal for authentic 1940s and 1950s daywear looks

Stocking Sizing
Glamour Seamed Stockings
Fully Fashioned and RHT Stockings
Fully Fashioned and RHT stockings are made from none stretch nylon (although they do have a little mechanical stretch which means although the yarn is officially none stretch, there is some 'give'). This makes selecting the size far more critical than with modern hosiery which contains elastane or lycra for stretch.
They're stockings are made to fit the average dress sized 12 to 16 woman (8-12 US, 40-44 European). If you are smaller than this please try the size below, if larger please go up one size. Please do not be tempted to go up more than one size as these stockings are non stretch nylon and this will lead to wrinkly ankles!
