Hosiery 101 By Chrissy Winters

Hosiery can be subtle and demure, bold and bright, elegant or simply sexy! Suddenly Fem offers the widest selections of crossdressing hosiery available for the cross dresser. Not only do they offer the widest selection but they come in a variety of sizes to fit all of us dolls.

Hosiery is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to liven up a wardrobe with a great pair of hose! Girls we have so many options when it comes to hosiery but sometimes we all need a little guidance in making our selections. 

• DON'T: Be timid about Fishnets! Try a pair of fishnets as they add interest without looking sleazy and talk about super sexy...especially in our lingerie made for men!
• DO: Wear dark, solid colors and ribbed textures with dark clothes to slenderize and elongate your figure.
• DON'T: Wear pastels or white pantyhose with a dark skirt unless you are six feet tall or want to cut your figure in half.
• DON'T: Be shy! Patterns, thigh highs and lace pantyhose can add a touch of whimsy to your crossdressing clothing.
• DO: Try Back seams hose as they make the legs look super long and add interest to your legs when leaving a room.

Suddenly Fem offers the best when it comes to Opaque Hair Coverage Pantyhose! Covers the heaviest, darkest leg hair. When using the nude shade of the ultra coverage pantyhose, put another pair of sheer pantyhose or stockings over them (any color except nude). The black ultra coverage hose is to be worn alone; another pair of hose over them is not necessary.

Most importantly...take a few minutes to put your hosiery on properly!

• Remove all jewelry, and check fingernails and toenails for rough edges. (This greatly reduces those maddening "they ran as soon as I put them on" mornings.)
• Roll each leg of the pantyhose down and place the toe of the garment over the foot. Gently smooth one leg all the way up, then repeat on the other leg.
• Pull the rest of the pantyhose up to the waist ,but don't pull too tight! Smooth fabrics while checking for twists and sags.
• Lastly, take off your hosiery just as carefully as you put them on!

Caring for your hosiery.

Your hosiery will last so much longer if you wash your hosiery gently by hand. Use a mild detergent that doesn't contain chlorine bleach. To dry, place one or two pairs of pantyhose on a towel, roll up and squeeze towel gently. This eliminates stretching when hanging hosiery to dry. Never attempt to dry pantyhose in the dryer.
