Dress Up Shoes With Lingerie for Your Toes

December 26, 2009 by Bruna

As we’ve told you before, flaunting your undies is a huge fashion trend this season. But if dressing a la Lady Gaga is not your cup of tea, designer Vicki Kysella has created an interesting way to give you a lingerie-inspired look without having to go bare—Lingerie for your toes!

With the hopes of revamping hosiery into an exciting fresh new look, Kysella created Lingerie Toes under her brand Voet Hosiery to replace unsightly toe peds that almost always end up peeking out from under the edge of our shoes.

Kysella explains how Lingerie Toes came about on her Web site: “One day while shopping at a department store for flesh-colored toe peds, I realized that these things were really ugly, and embarrassing when they showed. I knew I could make something nicer for my feet. So, I went home and pulled out my sewing machine and some lace. What came next was my first pair of Lingerie Toes… my design exceeded my expectations. Not only were they comfortable, but they were also cuter than I had imagined. The fact that they were peeking out from my shoes was no longer an embarrassment, but an asset. When friends saw me wearing my Lingerie Toes they loved them, and encouraged me to wear them with open-toed shoes. I was a little unsure at first because I was used to hiding my old toe peds. Now, I wear Lingerie Toes as a fashion accessory, and for added comfort.”

Styles are one-size and include fun prints like skulls in red, white and black, and even a lavender tiger mesh. Check them out below!

Falke Hosiery

December 23, 2009 by Kelly

I don’t think we’ve ever really talked about Falke on The Lingerie Post, which is a shame because Falke makes some of the most beautiful tights and stayups out there! Take a look at some pieces the latest collection:

The Falke website describes the customer they have in mind when they design:

“The FALKE scenery is populated by indefatigable globetrotters, stubborn individualists, polyglot adventurers, fanatic perfectionists, sensitive intellectuals and pretentious aesthetes. Their style of living and dressing reflects a good deal of self-confidence. We enjoy their company. Those are the ones we have in mind in search for the ideal shape and the best handmade quality. Our equal spirited friends expect a perfect translation of their aesthetic concept of modern outfits.”

Family-run Falke was founded in 1895 when Franz Falke-Rohan founded a knitting mill, and the German brand began manufacturing hosiery in 1958. Falke has a range of products including sportswear, clothing items, and socks. We just focus on the gorgeous hosiery here at TLP. 😉 I haven’t had the opportunity to try Falke myself, mainly because I am way too hard on my hosiery and I can’t imagine the heartbreak of the inevitable run I would create in these pricey beauties! But every Falke-wearer I know can only rave about them and they are delicious eye candy. You can find Falke at MyTights, Freshpair, Stockings HQ, Alex Blake, and Figleaves (UK/US).

The Joys of Commando Hosiery!

October 25, 2009 by Krista

commando hosieryI recently told you about the great new hosiery options at Bare Necessities for fall.  I mentioned my excitement about Commando venturing into the world of hosiery.  I assumed that their tights would be great based on the impeccable design talent that created their legendary thong . Now I can tell you that they actually are!  I tested out the tights the other day and I am totally hooked!   I can confidently say these are the most comfortable and flattering pair of tights I have ever worn.

My favorite part of the tights is the waistband. In true Commando form, the wide, laser-cut waistband lies flat against your body leaving no lines under your most snugly fitting dresses eliminating those unsightly bulges that typical, elastic band tights leave. The tights themselves are soft, smooth, and sleek.  To add a little pizzazz, the waistbands of the black and brown tights are not only available in solids, but in paisley as well.  My wish is that the hosiery will be so successful that they branch out into patterns, textures, and more.

Retailing at $34 (and worth every penny!), Commando hosiery is available online at Bare Necessities and on the Her Look website.

The World’s Most Expensive Hosiery

October 18, 2009 by Kelly

Tightsplease has just introduced what they say are the most expensive tights out there, now available for pre-order. The tights are Wolford Fringe Tights, 100 denier, with five rows of fringing down the calf and to the ankle.  They cost £199 (about $320 and €215) and only a few hundred have been made. Personally, I would find the fear of snagging £199 hosiery to be too crippling to ever wear them! But if you love these (and have the money!) you can claim yours at Tightsplease.com.
