Seamed Stockings for 1940s and 1950s Day Wear Fashions If you've worn modern champagne seamed stockings before, you'll probably have noticed that the seam isn't as visible as you might like. Surely, the whole point in wearing seamed nylons is that you can see the seam? Modern nylons, including modern Fully Fashioned stockings, tend to be a lot sheerer than stockings of the 1940s and 1950s which means that the seam is not as prominent, especially if you're light-skinned and wearing a stocking to match your skin tone. We've gone back to the drawing board with our champagne Glamour seamed stockings by adding a slightly darker, latte, seam. Combined with a flattering deep welt we hope you'll find them a great complement to your vintage daywear looks.
