Be Wicked! Dancing All Night Bodystocking Neon Green

Neon green is the shade in the Be Wicked! Dancing All Night range that nobody can miss. This long sleeve fishnet bodystocking covers you from a mock neck down through the sleeves and torso in a wide, open net, and in this acid-bright colour it turns a plain black outfit into a statement. Pick it for festival weekends, glow-themed parties and nights when you want your look to do the talking.

What the fabric is like

The net is knit from 94% nylon and 6% spandex. Nylon gives the strands a smooth, slightly glossy finish, and the small amount of spandex lets the whole piece stretch over hips and shoulders, then draw back in so it hugs rather than hangs. Because the openings are wide, the fishnet sits lightly on the skin and lets plenty of air through, which helps on a packed dance floor. It also means your skin and whatever you wear underneath stay very visible.

Styling a neon green fishnet bodystocking

Green this bright looks strongest against black. Try a black bralette and high-waisted briefs underneath, then add black shorts, a pleated mini or cargo pants on top so the colour shows at the arms, neck and midriff. A mesh or vinyl crop top layered over the net builds texture without hiding it. For a bedroom look, a black or white thong underneath keeps the focus on the colour. Metallic silver jewellery and chunky platform boots finish a club outfit well; keep pieces with sharp edges or claw settings to a minimum, since they snag open knits.

Fit and sizing

It's sold as one size fits most, with no separate sizes. The spandex blend is what makes that work: on a smaller frame the net closes up and looks denser, while on a taller or curvier body it opens out and the diamonds look bigger. If you sit at either end of the usual size range, expect a different look rather than a different fit. Tall wearers may find the sleeves end a little above the wrist. Be Wicked! doesn't publish a size chart for this piece, so the stretch is what you're relying on.

Getting dressed without a snag

Fishnet tears when it's yanked at one point, so dress slowly. Bunch the body up in your hands like a pair of tights, step in with pointed toes, and roll it up the legs and over the hips a little at a time. Work each arm into its sleeve, then settle the mock neck last. Smooth the net with flat palms to spread the stretch evenly. Take it off the same way, rolling down rather than pulling.

Washing it

Be Wicked! recommends a gentle hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent, then laying it flat to air dry. Skip bleach, the tumble dryer, the iron and any high heat. Bright dyes can bleed on the first wash, so give it a basin to itself the first time.
