Oh my… the very thought of donning a pair of nylons/stockings/hosiery/tights – in this climate is enough to make you shudder! In fact, due to Singapore’s humid climate, it’s one of the few places in the world you can often get away without wearing stockings at all.
If you hold a professional position or are attending a special event however, you may be forced to wear them. If this is the case, keep the following tips in mind:
1. The best colour choice is a neutral shade. Always opt for stockings that are one or two shades darker than your natural skin tone.
2. If you must wear stockings for an after-hours event, leave home with bare legs and carry a pair of stockings in a
plastic Ziploc bag in your handbag. Once you reach your destination, you can then put them on. The plastic bag
saves them from snagging on anything in your purse and you’ll stay cool until you’ve reached an air-Conditioned
environment.

3. Never wear stockings with a reinforced toe with open-toed shoes.
4. Never wear stockings with strappy sandals.
5. Never wear light coloured shoes with dark stockings.
6. If possible, buy stockings with Lycra or Microfiber in the mix for a lighter, smoother appearance. Lycra and
Microfiber blend well with Nylon and there is no sagging at the ankles.
