Hose

Does any body remember the seams in hose? Note: I hate panty hose Becky. They twist and turn and don't expand on my stomach.

Yes, I remember my mother wearing stockings with seams. In fact, I found a couple of unworn pairs in her lingere drawer after she died. I'm pretty sure I tried on a pair as a teenager, just to see my legs in them...but from remembering her fighting to keep the seams straight, I never wanted any---plain stockings were enough of a trial for me! Sorry you don't like pantyhose, Bonnie.

I'd like them if I could find some that fit! I'm at the awkard stage, too small for Queen, to large for regular, too tall for most, and pulling them up they always twist somewhere in the leg and boy does that hurt.

Plus now days there is one spot my thighs touch and in the heat that is maddening! Won't even mention the way they feel when I sit.lol Remember I have no waist any more. I can remember when they first came out, and I was pleased about no more garter belts.

Does man dare comment? An old one at that? I have always felt that black hose with the seams up the back epitomized the "Femme Mystique," to be downright cloddish, I've thought they made a woman look "Classy!"
