Does anyone wear these anymore?

I would if I was still working in a job that required business attire. Some people have blemishes on their legs that look better covered.

I would if I ever had occasion to really get dressed up wearing a dress or skirt. Not likely to happen though.

Apparently, all female members of the UK royal family must never go bare-legged. Perhaps QVC can make a deal with the Queen. Meanwhile, we Americans will do as we please.

I would if I could get them on but I can't bend my left knee so anything with "feet" attached to them is a NO for me LOL !

I ordered them.

Really hope pantyhose comes back 'cause my legs are sooo pale (I burn and don't tan), I don't feel comfortable wearing a skirt/dress in the warmer weather when it's too hot for tights (thin tights, not the 'pant'-type). Hope the good. old pantyhose comes back in style.

When I saw these I ordered them immediately. I think ladies look so much better wearing pantyhose, the bare leg look is only good on young women.

Pantyhose: the original fast fashion! You're lucky if you got two wears from a single pair! I do not miss the last minute sprint to the grocery store or drugstore to hit that carousel to select the right pair. And then trying to put them on in the car on the way to the wedding! LOL no sirree I do not miss it at all

I think they are one of those necessities but I have to admit I haven't worn any in awhile.

I would wear them only with a dress or skirt, neither of which I wear very often. Too bad they didn't have a few more colors like navy and green. I probably would have picked some up .

I had too many questions about that Item # which Leah didn't address. However, I do wear Linea's shear tights with dress clothes such as suits and knits. They are wonderful.

I had to a couple of years ago for GS wedding and I was so uncomfortable. Of course I got a run and was even more uncomfortable. I try to avoid at all costs but older legs need help sometimes. Many use self tanner instead of panty hose torture.

@mspatmac

There are some temporary leg make ups on the market that are water resistant and would seem to be easier to use than self tanner. I think Sally Hansen and Jurgens both have one

The Q sells one too but more pricy

Absolutely.

Back in the day I would buy Donna Karan sheer hoisery and they were wonderful. If I was careful I could make them last for a long time.

These days, in the spring/summer if I wear a dress where my legs show, I use makeup and use a setting spray to keep it in place. To be honest, I use my mistake make up (tinted moisturizer) mixed w/ some cheap "tan" colored make up and apply to my legs. Makes my legs look really nice and it's a way to use up my mistakes. I can customize the color by the amount of the tan make up I use.

In the winter I wear opaque tights that match my boots/skirt.

@Andreatoo Thank you, didn't think of that when I was posting, certainly makes more sense.

You betcha. I never got the memo that they went out but at my age, there's no way I'm going bare-legged!

Re: A392250

PreKteacher — Sat, 19 Sep 2020 22:06:22 GMT

I haven't worn them in years! I've never had pretty legs, so I usually wear maxi dresses in hot weather and tall boots with dresses/skirts in cold weather.

Bare legs for more dressy events look tacky to me. The last time a few years ago I went to a wedding, I wore thigh high - comfortable and a more polished look. I don't follow what some say is in or out fashion wise - I wear what I like!!

Sometimes for conference meetings at work, need to wear hose. So, yes.

I haven’t worn hose in 5 years and hopefully won’t for another 5 years.
