Be Wicked! Great Catch Fishnet Thigh Highs – White

A seam running up the back of the leg is the oldest trick in hosiery, and these white fishnet thigh highs from Be Wicked! Great Catch put it on a pale net. The result is part pin-up, part bridal: a fishnet stocking that ends at the thigh, with a single line drawing the eye from heel to hem.

What the back seam does

The seam gives a long, straight line on the back of each leg, which makes heels look higher and calves look defined in photos. It's the detail behind classic forties and fifties glamour, and it's what separates these from a plain fishnet stocking. On white net it reads softer than on black, more vintage bride than vamp.

Keeping white fishnet thigh highs up

The supplier description doesn't say whether the top band has a silicone grip, so we can't promise they stay up on their own. A garter belt is the dependable option and suits the retro style anyway: clip the front and back of each stocking and the seam is pulled straight at the same time.

Fit and fabric

Be Wicked lists them as one size fits most, made from 100% nylon, and sold in a box. No measurements, length or stretch details are given beyond that. If you'd rather avoid fishnet at the thigh altogether, the Up All Night white pantyhose carry a fine net up to the waist instead.
