Wearing pantyhose without panties
You can visit the french version of this page.
The
purpose of this site is to discuss the habits of women who wear hosiery: Almost
all women regularly wear pantyhose but with a pair of panties
underneath!
However, when you think about it, pantyhose were conceived to replace
stockings AND panties. In fact:
·
Nothing is more ugly and unsexy than the
sight of panties covered by pantyhose. This is no doubt what gives pantyhose its
unwarranted reputation of being an unattractive accessory, contrary to that of
stockings. A pretty pair of seamless pantyhose offers perfect continuity from
ankles to waist, a continuity that is spoiled by the presence of panties.
·
With tight-fitting clothing, the outline of
one’s panties is too often apparent.
·
One look at the ads and the pantyhose
packages will tell you: panties are never
seen!

What is meant by « seamless » is
that the fabric has a uniform appearance from ankle to waist. These are the
prettiest.

Once a person is used to it, wearing
pantyhose without panties is generally much more
comfortable.

Men are hardly indifferent on this
issue!
What we call pantyhose « collants »

Inevitably, the first few times you put on your pantyhose without panties
it will feel a bit strange, but it’s just a question of getting used to it (like
the first time one puts on thong-backed panties). Here are a few
tips:
·
Be sure your pantyhose have a sewn-in
crotch. My advice is to buy pantyhose of higher quality. They are more resistant
and will last longer, (which makes up for the initial higher price). I have a
personal preference for Wolford: they all have an integral crotch, are extremely
resistant and are very beautiful. The service is always impeccable in their
shops. Moreover, all the saleswomen I asked told me that their entire line of
pantyhose can be worn without panties, as an important part of their customers,
in fact, do.
· To start off, so as not to make the transition too difficult, wear hose with a panty already sewn in (like the 9 by Wolford and SensWell by Well). They are a lot less attractive than the seamless kind but will allow you to progressively get used to the difference in feeling.
·
Don’t hesitate to ask for advice from a saleswoman specializing in
pantyhose (Wolford shops, quality lingerie boutiques, the pantyhose aisle in
large department stores.) A word of caution: in smaller lingerie boutiques where
pantyhose account for only a small part of sales, good advice will be harder to
get on this subject.
A site to consult when buying pantyhose : Le choix de Clémentine (french).
