Fishnets…how to wear them well?


I love fishnet stockings, but there is a right way to wear them, and then it becomes easy to cross a line and wear them in a way that is VERY wrong!

With Halloween just around the corner, and half the population desiring a “sexy” look, fishnets are perfect…go wild!
But if you are not dressing in a costume, take caution with the alluring fishnets. They can be too much for day looks and over the top for evenings, unless you use them thoughtfully.

Fishnets, by the nature of their history, have an alluring style to them.
They will add sex appeal to almost anything you pair them with. So when wearing fishnets you must use them with an editorial eye!
Use fishnets to spice up a plain outfit, or something that may look too demure.

The very chic “lady like” look can be a bit old fashion on some, the fishnet is a perfect way to add some edge to that 50’s throwback look.
If the outfit is about the fishnets, then keep everything else fairly conservative; don’t show off too much skin or too many curves.

I love pairing fishnets with a high necked sweater dress. A sweater dress on its own can be a bit frumpy at times, fishnets add the sass!

I also love pairing fishnets with a boyfriend blazer and tailored shorts which can be a bit masculine, the fishnets add feminine allure.
If your outfit already shows off a little cleavage, or has a short hemline, or tightly hugs the body, then adding fishnets stockings probably will be taking the “sexy” in the look to far.
Be careful!

Save the sexy outfit with fishnets for a sexy Halloween costume!

Fishnets have a strong voice when it comes to style and can really add just the right statement to an outfit, but you must use them with care, because they can also take a look over the top.
If you love the look of fishnets but feel unclear about how to wear them, ask the advice of a professional.
