Leg Avenue Occult Net Thigh Highs

Occult net takes the standard fishnet grid and works symbols into it, so the leg carries a pattern with an actual point of view rather than a plain repeating diamond. Black, thigh high, and considerably more interesting than the usual pair.

These are a gift to anyone building a look with a darker register: they sit under a black mini dress, over opaque tights for layered texture, or with boots and a long coat. They are also one of the fastest Halloween shortcuts there is, since the pattern does the theming without a full costume. Roll them up from the ankle rather than dragging at the band. Hand wash in cool water and lay flat to dry, well away from rings.

Themed hosiery is usually printed onto plain tights and cracks at the knee within a wear or two. Knitting the motif into the net means the pattern stretches with the leg and stays sharp.
