DITA VON TEESE AND SEAMED STOCKINGS

I just found this quote by Dita Von Teese online -

“I have been obsessed with seamed stockings my whole life, and I would collect vintage ones that were made in the ’40s and ’50s with the authentic styling of the keyhole, the welt, the reinforced toe and heels, French or Cuban heels, and hand-stitched seams. I can’t stand faux-seamed stockings with lycra — you lose the sensual feeling of the fabric”
If you have ever tried pure nylon stockings you know what she is talking about. I love hold ups and stockings with lycra, especially for a day look they're much more practical, but nothing beats the feel of the nylon on the leg, the sheerness, the sensuality of a garter belt.
Ah, Dita, you know it all...

By the way, you can buy her used stockings on her website - very fetish and apparently there is a waiting list for them!
