Presentation

I had never worn a body stocking before. I was curious, seeing so many on EF all the time... So I set about trying to find one for myself. I had a checklist of this I would need if I bought a body stocking.
-Crotchless
-Reasonably fit my height
-Not be fishnet or fencenet (personal style reason)

Not too hard, but I was pretty picky about the types of patterns on each piece offered on EF. I decided finally on this one, mainly because it is footless and therefore more adjustable to my height. It had all the features I was looking for, but no reviews.
It wasn't too expensive, so I figured that I didn't have much to lose anyway.

It came to me in a box from Music Legs, with a photo of the model wearing it.

Materials, Quality, Care

This is not surprisingly made out of 100% nylon. It is stretchy and will accommodate a variety of shapes and sizes. It is made in Taiwan, for those who want to know. You should hand wash it, due to its somewhat delicate material. If you do machine wash, be sure it is on cold and without snagging materials. Hang it up to dry, and do not bleach or iron.

The material is run-of-the-mill in terms of nylon. It is soft, delicate, stretchy. What I did not know from looks, though, is that the stripes aren't just darker color in the material, they are thicker, less stretchy pieces of nylon. They are more opaque than sheer. This is neat and will make most women feel even sexier with a little more of themselves being less revealed.

However, the nylon around the stomach is very thin and will not hold you in very well at all if you have pudge you are worried about. (Like, in any direction, tummy or hips.) It is also very easily snagged, so be careful.

Sizing and Fit

My hesitance for body stocking purchases also included the dreaded "One Size" stamp. Am I one size? Am I "Plus Size One Size"? I don't really know.

On the package, this states it should fit anyone 5'-5'10". That's me! It also says it should fit 100-175lbs. That's me too! So, does it fit?

Well.
Let's divide it into: legs, torso/butt, chest.

Legs: Perfectly, they are footless and easy to adjust. You can wear this under a dress or skirt, and wear any kind of strapped sandal or heel and it will look awesome AND not bug your toes. My legs looked great in the stripes too.

Torso/Butt: Fail. You know when you wear tights too small for you? The butt kind of droops down if you have a shapely behind, and you have to hike the nylon up higher in order to fit. This is how this looks on me. I hike it up, but at most, the "boyshort striped area" looks terrible. It covers half my ass. If the entire torso were darker/opaque, this wouldn't look so bad. Because it is a denoted "boyshort" area, it looks awkward and not so sexy. The torso is also very thin and does not feel very supportive. I guess I always imagine a body stocking would make you feel supported and held in a little bit. This just doesn't so that. The crotch area is nice, though, since it is big enough to fool around in and stretches with you.

Chest: When I first started putting the body stocking on, I had a moment of "Oh no!" when I got it up to my bellybutton. At that point, I could pull the straps all the way up my shoulders and my breasts were above the top of the body stocking.
That can be a positive thing, I suppose. But with some readjusting, especially with the boyshort portion, It pulled up to the top of my breasts, sort of like where it ends on the model. I am tall, though, so I suppose most people will find it covers their breasts without a problem.


There is a seam in the nylon, going vertically throughout the front and the back. I don't really like it, since it distracts from the look.

Overall, I might wear this under dresses and skirts, but it won't be something I wear to try to feel sexy. The nylon feels to thin and cheap for that, and the faux-underwear kinda makes me look like a plumber even though I'm totally covered up!
I will continue to look at bodystockings though, and know that this first one might just be a bit lower quality than what I am looking for.

I do believe a wide range of women can fit in this, without a problem.

Those with large breasts might find themselves wearing this "open bust," though. And those with large booties might find themselves having a plumber's buttcrack like I had.
