• Step 1: Measure your waist and hips. Your waist is usually your best size guide. Waist measurements are given on all our product pages in the Description area.
• Step 2: Choose your style. The shape and little details matter, depending on how and where you will be wearing it.
• Step 3: Think about the fabric and the comfort levels you require. Pick your straps. 4 for basics, 6 for classic vintage, 8+ for extra hold. Always metal clips.
• Step 4: Perfect the fit. Think hug, not squeeze!
• Step 5: Fit test. Clip stockings at a 45° angle — seams stay straight, stockings stay secure.
