Leg Avenue Heart Lace Trimmed Heart Net Stockings with Attached Garter Belt

Heart net from the toe up, heart lace at the top band, and a garter belt built into the same piece. What it really buys you is time: no belt to shop for, no clips to fasten, and no adjusting once the night is under way.

Because the straps are fixed at the length they were designed for, the line down the thigh stays straight rather than wandering. Wear it under a short dress so the belt shows at the hem, or with lingerie on its own. White is the brightest of the three and photographs best, magenta and red is the loudest, and black is the one that goes with everything already in the drawer. Hand wash in cool water, lay flat to dry, and keep it away from anything with a hook.

A knitted heart net holds its pattern for the life of the garment, which is not true of a print. That, plus the built-in belt, is why this outperforms the cheaper stocking-and-belt combination it replaces.
