In the world of textiles, fishnet is a material that has an open, diamond shaped knit. The material is often used in the making of stockings, tights or body stockings. The fishnet stockings are available in a wide variety of colors. The most often used color is the traditional matte black. Fishnet stockings are popular within the Goth and punk fashion today but they are also seen in the mainstream as one of the many fashion statements.
Nowadays, the fishnet stockings have become an updated, more fashionable replacement of old fashioned nylons or pantyhose. Many young women are using them as a part of their club wear fashion, burlesque shows and into the even more modern urban women’s wear. These saucy mesh stockings can be worn at any time of the day, though there are many factors that can influence their appropriateness. These factors include the size of the mesh, color of the stockings, the footwear and clothing that they are worn with and of course, the condition of the fishnet stockings themselves.
