Backseam stockings

Secrets in Lace Holds Stocking Records

January 2, 2008 by Kelly

Diamond Backseam stockings at Secrets in LaceYou have seen Secrets in Lace before when we showed you Dita Von Teese’s stocking collection. They have a lot more to offer, though; in the last month alone, the company has launched more than a dozen new products (including these diamond backseam stockings)! There is a lot to say about this company’s dedication to their world-famous lingerie, but today I’m just going to focus on their stockings. Retro fans, read on!

Elegance Euro Heel stockings from Secrets in LaceSecrets in Lace has been shipping their products around the world since 1995. Resisting requests from large retailers to sell their brand in stores, the company has continued to sell exclusively through their mail order catalog and website. Dita Von Teese herself is a customer, and chose the brand to create her line because she trusted the company’s knowledge and experience with full-fashioned stockings. In fact, Secrets in Lace has the largest selection of full-fashioned stockings in the world!

Secrets in Lace’s full-fashioned nylon stockings are manufactured on the same machines used in the 40’s and 50’s, and Elegance French Heel from Secrets in Lacemade in the same way – they are knit flat and sewn together with a backseam. The finishing hole and imprint found on the welt complete the glamorous stockings. Fans of sheer stockings will be thrilled to learn that Secrets in Lace also has the largest selection of finer denier stockings (10 denier and 7 denier). These are true fine deniers, too – they don’t try to win you over with “the appearance of fine denier” like some lesser stocking companies. Just to add to the list of exclusive products, Secrets in Lace also has the only true 10 denier fully fashioned stockings in the world. With a variety of heel styles and reinforcements, anyone can find exactly what she is looking for.Veronica Fishnets at Secrets in Lace

Of course, a world-famous stocking manufacturer would be amiss not to offer thigh highs, and they have recently introduced new lace top thigh highs, with one style being offered in seven sizes (because women are not one-size-fits-all)!

Vintage Dot stockings at Secrets in LaceTrend setters will be happy to learn that Secrets in Lace has also been offering patterned stockings for over six years (pictured is the Vintage Dot print, which is their most popular print).

We’d love to hear from anyone who has experience with this brand in the forums – it has come up in conversation more than once. Secrets in Lace told me that several of their loyal customers brought The Lingerie Post to their attention, so I know you’re out there! Be on the lookout for future articles featuring the company. There is a lot more to tell!

Retro Backseams with a Twist

November 6, 2007 by Kelly

I’m a little obsessed with bright contrast seam stockings right now. It’s getting colder here in the US as winter is creeping up, and it’s time to start covering our legs before they freeze right off! Retro-inspired seamed stockings are as classic and glamorous as they come, but the new trend of having a bright or contrasting color seam adds an extra detail Jonathon Astonthat I find irresistible. It flashes ever-so-subtly as your cross your legs, and everyone will want to watch you walk away!

My fixation started with these nude and red Jonathan Aston stockings. I got a pair a few months ago, and have been desperately waiting for the fall to come so I can find an occasion to wear them out!

Here are some more from Leg Avenue and Pamela Mann:

These stark backseams also have the great bonus of making your legs appear longer and leaner – so show them off! It is, however, a bit difficult to find a wide variety of colors. My dream would be to have a stocking wardrobe full of pairs similar to the Jonathan Aston ones, but in several different colors like purple or blue! If I ever find them, of course The Lingerie Post readers will be the first to know. And if you find some, please let us know in the forums!

Retro Stockings by Dita Von Teese

May 20, 2007 by Kelly

No one is more a fan of 40’s and 50’s pin-up glamour than Dita Von Teese, the famous burlesque performer, model, and ex-wife of rocker Marilyn Manson. Dita has paired up with Secrets in Lace to bring retro-inspired stockings to Dita Von Teese Stockingsthe masses! The description on the website reads:

“The Dita Full Fashion Stockings are made to the exacting standards of the 1950’s originals complete with her trademark logo imprint on the welt, a hand sewn backseam and finishing hole at the top of the welt.”

I have to say I’m very excited and intrigued by the idea of 1950’s replicas“ especially the hand sewn backseams! Anyone can find thigh-highs and pair them with a garter belt, but for the diehard fan of retro styles and rockabilly fashions, the Dita Von Teese collection is there to make sure your look is authentic! Garter belts are also available on the site to complete the set.
