A stunning take on sumptuous hosiery. The dramatic Memphis heel on this fully fashioned stocking features a delicate diamond motif which accentuates the shape and length of the leg. Features a keyhole/shadow welt ideal for any pinup or vintage look. Requires the use of a garter belt for wear. Made on original Reading machines in Derbyshire, England by House of Gio.
Wore these to a dinner party and the keyhole detail at the top got more compliments than my dress. The Memphis heel really does make your legs look longer, though the diamond pattern is subtle enough that it reads elegant rather than costumey.
The diamond motif on the Memphis heel is so much sharper in person than in the photos, and it really does make my legs look longer. Wore them with a short skirt all evening and the seam stayed straight the whole time.
I was worried the keyhole detail would look dated, but it actually reads really elegant on. The diamond motif at the heel is subtle enough for daytime, though these are clearly made to be seen. Wore them to a dinner and got three compliments before dessert.
