Mostly Square Things are pleased to offer a SINGLE pair of :

Vintage Beautiful Nylons RHT Stockings in Bamboo* 15 denier Size 9.5 The Suspense  BNIP

These might grace the Love the Taste Theme soon


We like to regularly release a group of items with a Theme

Our Theme for these is : The Suspense is (you can search for the others...)

A Theme for Stockings, any means of keeping them exactly where they are wanted and Bodystockings


Claiming Beautiful Nylons on the packaging had better not just be good spin

The packaging and the product look to have been excellent and to remain excellent

The colour Bamboo is the best match against the Legwear International colour chart (we hope that helps)

They have a very 1950s feel to their packaging


If you are not used to stocking sizings :

They are really important because of the lack of stretch in older 100% nylon stockings

There is some stretch obviously but only for this foot size !

You really need to take account of the foot length because the Foot of the Stocking will be shaped

Here it is 9.5 – provided in inches = 23.5 cm – 24.8 cm (UK shoe size 5)

This sits within the smaller end of the modern Medium  size range

IF the Foot length : Toe to Heel does not sit within that range

Then these are not going to fit comfortably !


Nylon  100% for a classic seam free look

15 denier is our estimate because the pack offers no information

with a Reinforced Heel and Toe (RHT)

These were made in the UK


New in (somewhat damaged) packaging

The Golden Label on which nothing remains legible would originally have announced :

Expanding Welt and then would have stated the foot size and minimum leg length

We don’t know the leg length because we haven’t removed them from their packaging but we have been able to accurately measure the foot at 9.5 inches


Sizing is not shown on the rear of the packet

Please do ask if you need advice on sizing

We want you to receive a correctly sized and well fitting product


We have other Beautiful Nylons (What a boast !) but we mean the brand; in an 8.5 and an 11

This pair is sitting (size-wise) in the middle – get in touch if you would like more information on the others

But if these are not to your size or taste then beautiful in a size larger (a 10)

We usually post to a final delivery address but we can always entertain other requests


If you acquire multiple items from us – of course we do combined postage

but do draw our attention to this because it can be missed

This will almost always lead to an overall cost saving – we try to do postage at cost

While we aim to supply the UK market – small items such as these are probably not economic to ship abroad 

unless they are discontinued and not otherwise available (and you have to have them)
