Large Reinforced Toe Pantyhose and Stockings

In our Hosiery News today we are posting to say thank you for the success of our large reinforced toe pantyhose and stockings,

Hello again thank you for reading,

Pantyhose T501 and also T502 Styles,

Do you remember a time when pantyhose, or tights as we call them here in the UK, were made with a larger reinforced toe, back in the 1960’s and 1970’s

These days hosiery is often made with a small reinforced or invisible toe.

So for our fellow enthusiasts and customers we’ve brought back the vintage look of time gone by,

These were often worn with painted toenails and sandals and often in heels,

We now have two ranges on pantyhose and a range of RHT stockings all with a bigger than average reinforced toe to complete your true vintage look.

The T501 are fifteen denier and available in that memorable colour American Tan and also black

Sizes Small to Medium or Medium to Large, the size guide in on the product page,

The T502 pantyhose are super sheer and available in Sahara, Beige, Vision and Black.

Sizes Small, Medium, Large and XL and again the size guide is on the product page.

Team these up with our vintage Betty Briefs and you’re good to go retro,

Stockings LRTRHT

So yes the idea is that years ago vintage hosiery sometimes would have a larger reinforced toe than todays hosiery so we now produce a range to complete the authentic look of yesteryear,

The latest range are our Large Reinforced Toe and Heel Stockings and can also be found by clicking on the image below,

These RHT Stockings are in size Medium and in colours Caramel and Bronze and are a limited edition,

Suspender Belt Sizes and Sizing

A few notes on suspender belt sizing.

Nylon Dreams sizing may differ from other manufacturers,

To help you our size charts are at the bottom page of every garment.

Also please be aware that our suspender belt sizing is different to our girdle sizing so please check the size charts when ordering both together.

Some of our styles go up to size XL, some up to XXL and some up to size 4XL

Our suspender belts are designed to be worn with the waist band just below the navel, as in our photos, that way they are designed to fit perfectly over the hips.

As dress sizing differs across the World we size them in inches by waist size.

1 inch = 2.54 cm

To convert inches to cm please multiply by 2.54 for example 34 inches becomes  86.36 cm

The sizes quoted are at full stretch so for example a size medium 32 to 34 inch waist will stretch to a maximum of 34 inches

To help please see a list of our sizes below,

Waist Cinchers & Retro Shape Wear

Spot Light on Waist Cinchers

There was a time when shapewear was painful when girdles and corsets were squeezed into.

It doesn’t have to be like that anymore, these are made with comfort built in and are glamorous design,

Did you know that our waist cinchers have stainless steel braided boning?

That means they will hold and control much better than plastic boning,

We cut each stainless piece by hand cut to length and crimped at the ends to ensure comfortable elegance.

Did you know that our waist cinchers have detachable straps,

We use hooks on the top of the straps,

That means you can wear them with or without stockings,

We always use quality Metal Clips and Adjusters also come as standard,

They also come with a vertical three position hook and eye at the front for a fine adjustment,

So you can always get that perfect fit you know you like,

Our Retro waist cinchers are available in Black Power Mesh with a beautiful floral lace design

Or in shocking red Lycra with the contrast lace.

We make plus sizes for the Black Power Mesh go up to size 3XL and the Red Lycra up to size 2XL

So if you’re looking for control wear that’s comfortable but sensual then this could be worth adding to your collection.

Suspender Belts for Surgical Stockings and Compression Stockings

Suspender Belts for Surgical Stockings and Compression Stockings

We have a style of suspender belt that many people are buying for holding up their surgical stockings and compression stockings,

It’s our 4 Strap Suspender Belt on the link below,

Our customers like it because it has a comfort waist band and a two inch fine adjustment for the waist,

Most importantly it has metal clips and adjusters that are robust enough for the job.

The clips are important, the button on ours will click into place so means it will not let go until you unclip it,

It also has 19mm wide straps which means they will last,

The smooth satin finish of the fabric gives it a nice soft sheen which adds to the overall quality of this garment,

For the keen eyed there is a pretty edging lace around the bottom edge of the belt which really adds to the quality and look of this belt.

It’s made to be perfect for all day and all night wear for both work and play,

So it seems it’s more comfortable and looks nicer than more traditional styles recommended for this,

If you’re looking for Suspender Belts for Surgical Stockings and Compression Stockings this could be what you’ve been looking for,

I thought I would share this with you for the people who need to wear these for medical purposes.

Our Girdles will keep you in suspenders too

When is a suspender belt not a suspender belt?

When it’s a girdle.

Girdles can serve many purposes, they can hold up your stockings like a suspender belt, but they can also help to slim and flatten the waist area.

Dual purpose then, that’s a good idea, but they can also be stylish and fun such as our Retro Ladybird Girdle in Red or Pink with pretty lace and bows.

Ladybird Spot Girdle Red
Ladybird Retro Girdle

These are known as open bottom girdles as they’re open at the bottom like a skirt and you step in and pull on, we also have white and black and go all the way up to 14 straps with our quality clips, links are in our menu on the right.

If you’re not wearing stockings then no drama we have our Panty Girdle to the rescue, comfortable and flattering without straps.

Panty Girdle

Also all of our girdles have comfort built in.

So we’ve got you covered then, excuse the pun lol,

So if you haven’t tried a girdle yet now could be the time, or maybe you just want to extend your range with more straps or a different style or give as a gift to a loved one.

Whatever the reason be sure to know that Nylon Dreams quality is built in.

Suspender Belt Clips

A few words about Suspender Belt Clips

There was a time when putting on a suspender belt was a bit of a struggle, especially attaching your stockings to the clips, sometimes the clips would let go when you least expected them to and your stockings would fall down, not a good look.

Well thankfully it doesn’t have to be like that anymore.

At Nylon Dreams to meet our exacting high standards we decided to use clips that are not only metal which means they last and they are also coated with Mirralloy to make them kind to the skin, even our buckle adjuster is coated with Mirralloy,

But also our clips are designed with a “bottle neck” in the eye design, which means the button clicks into place when you attach your stockings.

This means our suspender clips only let go when you decide so your stockings are in safe hands and you don’t need to worry about them falling down, so great for all day and night wear, even on the dance floor they don’t let go. Just make sure they clicked into place and you are all set.

It’s also reassuring to know that when buying a genuine Nylon Dreams garment you are buying with this quality of design built in so always check when buying to make sure it’s a genuine Nylon Dreams product for peace of mind.

PVC Suspender belts

PVC please…

That was a request asked several times by some of our customers,

A suspender belt made of PVC?

There is a story behind it,

We wanted to make a belt with a fetish theme and as we’d been asked we put our thinking caps on and thought, okay but the PVC fabric would need to be shiny and comfortable and be able to go through the sewing machines, (some PVC fabrics are sticky to the touch), but also would look stunning when worn,

So after much debate, a lot of searching for fabrics and several proto types later there we have it, our 6 strap PVC suspender belt, Tadaa..!

It’s been around for a while now and many customers have one in their collection,

We started with black and then introduced racy red, great for Christmas and Valentines,

Maybe one could find it’s way into your Christmas stocking…

They say a glimpse of stocking is shocking, but a view of a PVC belt as well oh,

Just a thought and wanted to share this with you,

Oh and here is a photo link if you wish to take a peek,

Thanks for reading…

Multi Strap Suspender Belts

Multi Strap Suspender Belts

For most of us 6 or 8 strap suspender or garter belts are what we look for but for others their need is for many more straps indeed.

10, 12 and even 14 straps, is it that allure of undoing or fastening the clips?

Or the stunning look that multi straps give?

Whatever the reason multi strap suspender belts are fast becoming even more popular,

They have the same built in comfort waist band and 4 way stretch fabrics to ensure they feel as good as they look

Maybe it’s time to consider choosing a multi strap suspender belt for your drawer…

There are 10 straps here

12 Straps there

and oh my gosh 14 Straps on this link
