Telegraph writer Rowan Pelling wrote a great article titled Stockings: sex, power and sheer seduction. It states that:

In the days when I edited The Erotic Review magazine I was often asked my opinion on various aphrodisiacs.

I always replied that while the arousing powers of oysters, asparagus, chocolate and the like were disputed, there was, in my opinion, only one thing guaranteed to raise the libido every time: a black lace suspender belt hitched to a pair of sheer seamed stockings.

When buying Vintage Stockings, it is important to understand what  “Denier” means. “Denier” is “a measure of the thickness of one thread of nylon, which determines the level of opacity.

The lower the number in denier, the finer the yarn, and thus the more silky the stocking will feel and the more sheer the stocking. For example, a 10 Denier is much silkier because they are finer and have more sheer over a 30 Denier.

What a good denier is really is a personal preference. If you like silky and sheer stockings, go for a low denier. But as they are finer, they are also more delicate and prone to runs. As for Vintage Seamed Stockings, the seams are less visible on low denier stockings.

For those who have spots on the leg, higher denier would be a better choice. They hold up better and the seams are more visible on the heavier stockings.

A stocking website states that 6 Denier was the lowest denier nylon ever produced for stockings. It was exhibited in London in 1956 at the Nylon fair. I believe that piece of information is outdated. You can find 5 Denier vintage stockings easily nowadays. 5 Denier are available on the internet, look for Ultra Sheer stockings from brands such as Aristoc and Pretty Polly.

My mum once told me that a lady who stays mystery has a greater appeal to men than those who walk around without clothes on. You can learn this from burlesque dancers. They do not usually come on stage without their clothes, but slowly remove each pieces as men wait in anticipation.

Back seam stockings always spoke of romance and mystery.

Why fully fashioned seamed stockings is said to create high sex appeal compared to regular stockings?

I interviewed a few men about what they think of ladies who wear seamed stockings. This is what they said:

“I always thought of ladies who wears seamed stockings are brought up in a well mannered family, they are thought well to learn to wear seamed hosiery.”

“Women who wear seamed stockings in public are women who are very confident about themselves and not shy to show their feminism.”

“Those who are well educated, knowledgeable, sophisticated and have fashion sense.”

So, these are what the three men I interviewed have to say about seamed hosiery. Now lets read what I think is the actual reason that seamed hosiery is so sexy.

The seam on the stocking not only attracts man’s attention to the woman’s legs, it also encourages the eye to travel vertically up the back of the leg along the curve of the leg. Watching the seam disappears under a skirt causes a man’s pulse to race, wondering about the promise that the disappearing seam holds.

Men are not able to put in words why they have such a fetish for seamed stockings, but when I showed them the words I have above, they all agree that it is quite true. So I concluded that the mystery that the seam creates is the actual reason why seamed hosiery is a secret fetish of a lot of men.
