Once upon a time, a long time ago back in the 60’s, very short skirts became the fashion rage. Jean Shrimpton was hotly debated as to whether she should be allowed into Australia for the Melbourne cup because she was known as ‘the legs’ in short skirts. Naturally, Jean arrived amid much publicity.
Australians pretended shock horror and rage and Jean Shrimpton was not remotely disadvantaged by all the publicity. But for the average woman, very short skirts have many disadvantages.
Not least of which is our legs. Many women simply do not have shapely enough legs that can carry off the wearing of a very short skirt gracefully.
Legs have to be more than shapely they also have to be attractive. Nylon stockings make legs more attractive but this is where personal choice and beauty appreciation meets practicality.
Not only are our legs not elegant or sexy enough to show off in a very short skirt but our posture isn’t observed enough to NOT show off more than we intended. How many times have your eyes been drawn to the sudden hiking of a skirt thigh high? More times than many men would like their wives or partners to know about anyway, I’ll bet.
The sudden hiking of a skirt thigh high can be improved upon if the woman is wearing pantyhose nylon stockings. At least these look a bit sexier than the sudden appearance of fish-belly white thighs. But then again, I’m not a male so maybe I’m wrong on that.
But from this woman’s perspective, another of the disadvantages of wearing a very short skirt is the breeze factor. Don’t laugh, but getting a sudden gust of cold wind up bare legs is cold and disconcerting, to be polite.
Very short Skirts leave a lot of bare leg open to the elements and this is very disadvantageous as far as most women are concerned.
Ladies Stockings are more than a sensual garment. Some women are allergic to nylon. Do you know someone who is? For great up-to-the-minute styles visit Jan Smith’s web site at http://mumsdomain.com/womensstockings/
