Hosiery Care Tips

Washing — always hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle in a lingerie bag; stockings and hold-ups are delicate and will ladder in a standard wash cycle
Putting on — always remove jewellery and ensure nails are smooth; roll stockings and hold-ups up the leg rather than pulling from the top to avoid laddering
Drying — never tumble dry; hang to air dry away from direct heat and sunlight to preserve the elasticity and colour
Storage — store flat or loosely rolled in a drawer; avoid folding tightly as this can damage the silicone band on hold-ups over time

Stockings & Hold-Ups FAQs

What is the difference between stockings and hold-ups?

Stockings are worn with a suspender belt — they have no elasticated top and rely on the suspender clips to stay in place. Hold-ups have a silicone band at the top that grips the thigh and stays up independently — no suspender belt required. Both look identical when worn. Stockings are the most glamorous choice; hold-ups are the most practical. Get in touch if you’d like help choosing.
