Stylish stockings from Japan give your legs a pierced look without the actual piercing

As a dedicated fashion designer, Yuri Yumetsuki takes great pains creating cute fashions. That doesn’t mean there’s any pain involved in wearing her latest offering, however.

11 Things You Might Not Know About Nylon

When I was a kid, I had an elderly widowed uncle who every Christmas bought each female in the family — and there were a lot of females in our family — three pairs of nylon stockings, nestled into pretty hosiery boxes from Wanamaker’s. We never really talked about how peculiar this was. (I mean, stockings are pretty much underwear.) But the invention of nylon by a DuPont scientist — it was patented 80 years ago today — changed the world, and clearly had a big impact on Uncle John, for whatever reason. (One theory was that he had a crush on a hot clerk in the hosiery department.) Here, in recognition of that 80th anniversary, are 11 things you might not know about nylon. Read more

Nylons nail it for peak pins - 75 years of stockings

The ultimate in erotica, still at the cutting edge of fashion and a staple of every woman’s underwear drawer, Jonathan de Burca Butler pays homage to the nylon stocking on its 75th anniversary.

THEY have been known to reduce men to blubbering fools. They have been worn in bank heists, used as paint strainers and housewives of a certain generation swear by them for cleaning the silver.

Nylon stockings were first introduced to the world on October 27, 1939, when they were sold in a department store in Wilmington, Delaware in the USA. The fabric itself had been discovered a few years earlier by the nearby DuPont chemical company who initially used the man made material, the world’s first, for toothbrushes and fishing line. By May 1940, nylon stockings were being sold in department stores in New York.

Stockings Series, Part 3: Ads from the Archives, 1890-1939

The story of stockings began before the nylon version captivated American women. Leading up to the craze for the synthetic stretchy material, silk stockings had their moment from the late 19th century through the mid-20th century. As hemlines rose and legs were exposed, silk stockings became an essential part of many women’s wardrobes. As I mentioned in Part 1 of Threaded’s Stocking Series, women, on average, purchased eight pairs per year. By the 1930s, in fact, Japanese silk producers were earning $70 million annually, mostly from stocking production. But the non-stretchy silk product was expensive, deteriorated quickly and ran easily. So before nylon was invented (and women went so far as to paint stocking onto their legs when there was a wartime shortage), techniques thought to elongate the lifespan of silk hose were embraced.

Stocking Series, Part 1: Wartime Rationing and Nylon Riots

Nylon stockings made their debut in my hometown, Wilmington, Delaware, on October 24, 1939. That’s because Wallace Hume Carothers, the chemist who invented the synthetic material in 1935, worked for the DuPont company, which is headquartered there. In fact, the first test sale to DuPont employees’ wives took place at the company’s experimental station, just up the street from my childhood home. Not long before the 4,000 pairs of stockings sold out—in only three hours!—DuPont had had women modeling nylon hosiery at the 1939 New York World’s Fair, touting nylon as a synthetic fabric made of “carbon, water and air.” A prototype of that initial run (get it?) can be found in the Smithsonian’s collection.
