Hold up Stockings
« on: 20 May 2012, 08:37:24 pm »
Does anyone know any stocking that actually f*cking stay up?!Even with a suspender belt mine always start slipping, which is awful for outcalls (and unlike Belle DuJour I don't do black cabs, I do the bus...).
Any help advice would be appreciated. I'm sick of the paranoia!

If they're falling down with a suspender belt, do you need a smaller suspender belt? In fact if you're wearing an SB, why not just wear proper stockings? They're easier to get in different sizes and they don't have a horrible acky bit around the top.

I do keep some M&S ones on emergency standby, I must admit - they seem to stay up but I have to take them off as soon into the booking as I can because the stuff gives me a rash. Debenhams used to do some Jasper Conran ones with really deep tops that a lady I knew swore by, too.

I'm not calling them by the right name - sorry!They're not the hold up ones with the tacky bits, they're just the normal stockings. I have loads from Marks, have tried every different size, and some from Debenhams. I'm so not doing something right, but I don't know what. I think I need lessons.

I second this, cant find a decent pair!
Ann summers are bloody crap and the first time I wore them they laddered! before the client arrived!!!! I didnt even pull at them with my false nails! Biggest waste of ?8!
Sometimes it's not the youngest or the richest clients you want or the ones you have most in common with.

For me the perfect partner is one where I never have to be myself.

Try Stockings HQ - there's a link on the main site. They are incredibly helpful and if you give them a ring and tell them specifically what the problem is (too long, too short, too wide/loose in the legs or whatever), they ought to know which is the best brand for you. They sell everything, and they're cheap too :D.

marks and spencers are brilliant and they dont ladder either the holes just stays  the same and they can last for ages even  when wash them
 i use the lace top ones not the regular ones as they are crap  if you cant get them in store get them on line ( as not all stores sell them  and get them delivered to the store ) 

if stockings are falling down ( as in Nora Batty Style ) do you have oil  cream on your legs as this will make the sticky stuff not work properly

if your using suspender belts you might need smaller  /bigger clasps to hold them properly metal ones are best but i have plastic ones 
  i never throw mine out when they get old i keep them and the clips as i know that i will break or lose some when im touring or working and wont be able to replace them

Lovehoney do some which work for me, but I'm a thick thighed lady!  They have some which are sussie/stocking all in ones, which work very well for me, as I usually start sweating up and getting all steamy just trying to clip stocking onto the already restraining corset.....  I love wearing stockings, just hate putting the damned things on!!

Yep, this was me at the weekend. Stockings and suspenders. As I'm 5' 1" I find the suspender 'straps' generally too long. Even on the shortest setting they are too long.

I need some hold-ups - I actually use them as hold-ups and as 'stockings' too - I absolutely ABHOR stockings - I cannot stand the putting on of them - it gets me well riled up trying to attach the ****ing clips to the stocking tops, rrrrr, puts me in a proper bad mood!!!! And the whole them the stockings and the belt are sliding further and further down!

I hate stockings and hold ups too. I dispense with them very quickly in a booking if I can. "Oh well since my dress is off I think it's time to dispense with these VERY silly stockings, don't you?"
But I do have a trick that works for me rather well for stockings and supenders.

So I clip the BACK suspenders in place before I put the stockings on. Then, put on the stockings with the unclipped bits and the "belt" to the front, and the unfastened belt catch at the back. Holding the unfastened belt in place, I shoogle the stockings around on my legs a bit until I feel the back straps are in place then fasten the back of the belt and do up the front suspenders.  Once you get the knack it works rather well. Since I have ENORMOUS thighs, the twisting and stretching is too much of a hassle and gets me in a foul mood too.

Wish clients didn't insist on them.

I've found the Tesco ones to work quite well. They don't ladder that easily and seem to keep their stretch/fit quite well. At 3.50 a pair they're quite cheap too! Especially when the men have this need to rub their dry skinned feet up and down my legs lol

OH MY GOD!!!  This sounds like me!!  The worst thing anyone can want from me is to wear stockings.  I get them out, prepare the suspender belt or corset, then start sweating and panting at I'm trying to clip everything where it should be clipped.

I'm round, like a big beach ball in high heels.  My thighs and arse get in the way of the straps and stocking tops....

They do slip down a little, but I've just ordered more of the ones from Lovehoney because there's no clipping.

Unless there are six suspenders there is not meant to be anything at the back.  It is meant to be two at the front and two at the side and none at the back.

Beauty is nothing to do with having a pretty face.
It is about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart,
And most importantly a beautiful soul.
