The More Thigh Highs, The Merrier

Yes, of course, it's thigh highs. And we happen to believe that thigh highs are for everyone! Half for the selfish reason of wanting the good word of the garment spread far and wide, but also because we believe in celebrating all body types and empowering everyone to feel their best. Our favorite hobby just happens to be finding new ways to style thigh highs.

So, whether you're curvy, voluptuous, or simply blessed with beautiful legs, this plus-size thigh highs style guide is for you.

Embrace Your Curves: Confidence is Key

Saving the specifics for later, let's start with the most important element of any outfit: confidence. Owning your body and feeling great in your skin is the first step to looking fabulous.

Self-love: Start with a mindset of self-love and appreciation for your body.
Positive affirmations: Remind yourself daily that you are beautiful and deserving of style and fashion.
Body Shape Knowledge: Understand your body shape and its unique beauty. Whether you're pear-shaped, hourglass, or apple-shaped, you can find thigh highs that complement and flatter your figure.

Why Thigh Highs?

Thigh highs are versatile, flattering, and can make any outfit feel a little more special. Whether you're looking for everyday comfort or a statement piece, thigh highs are the answer. They allow you to flaunt your legs without the restrictions of tights and can transition from casual to glam in seconds.

For plus-size women, thigh-high stockings offer both practicality and allure. Their adjustable fit means comfort for all-day wear, while their design enhances the natural curve of your legs. Whether you're dressing up for a night out or keeping it casual, thigh highs add that perfect finishing touch.

Choosing the Right Thigh-Highs

Picking the perfect pair of thigh-highs can make all the difference. Here are just a few things to consider:

Material Matters

Stretch fabrics: Keep an eye out for materials like spandex or elastane, which provide that extra stretch that's all about comfort and flexibility.
Breathable textiles: Opt for fabrics that allow your skin to breathe, ensuring you stay comfortable all day long. Pro tip: microfiber blends are excellent for this!
Durability: Consider denier levels when selecting stockings. Higher denier means more durability—perfect for daily wear.

The Perfect Fit

True to size: Adopt the Goldilock's philosophy: Not too small, not too large. Thigh-highs should hug your legs without digging in.
Adjustable bands: Choose options with adjustable bands to keep them in place without slipping or pinching.
Thigh Circumference: Make sure to measure your thigh circumference to ensure the band fits comfortably. Many brands, including us at VienneMilano, offer a variety of sizes to cater to different body types.
Look for Plus-Specific Sizes: Ensure you're buying thigh highs specifically made for plus sizes, as they will offer more comfort and flexibility.

Styling Thigh High Stockings

Thigh-high stockings are the epitome of elegance and seduction. Here's how to integrate them into your wardrobe:

Everyday Wear

Skater skirts: Pair thigh-high stockings with a skater skirt and a casual top for a flirty daytime outfit.
Layering: Use stockings as a layering piece under distressed jeans for an edgy, street-style look.
Maxi Dresses: Add a subtle flair by wearing thigh highs under a flowy maxi dress, revealing just a hint of lace as you walk.
Casual Chic: For a cozy yet stylish vibe, team up thigh highs with an oversized sweater dress and boots for a perfect fall or winter look.

Special Occasions

Little black dress: Elevate your LBD with sheer thigh-high stockings and stilettos. A classic look that never fails.
Cocktail dresses: Opt for lace or patterned stockings to add a touch of glamour to your cocktail attire.
Date Night: Thigh-highs with garter belts are the perfect pairing for those romantic evenings.
Formal Events: Choose sleek, opaque thigh highs for a polished and elegant look, ideal for a black-tie event or a special night out.

Accessorizing Your Thigh-Highs

Accessories can take your thigh-high look to the next level:

Belts: Cinch your waist with a statement belt to enhance your silhouette. For plus-size beauties, a wide belt can create a lovely hourglass shape.
Jewelry: Choose bold pieces like chandelier earrings or layered necklaces to draw attention upwards.
Bags: A chic handbag or clutch can complete your look effortlessly.
Shoes: Go bold with your shoe choices—thigh highs and stiletto heels make a killer combo, while chunky boots can add some edge to your ensemble.

Tips and Tricks

Skin prep: Ensure your skin is moisturized to prevent any irritation from the material.
Body tape: Use body tape to secure your stockings if needed.
Confidence boost: Walk tall and proud—confidence is the best accessory.
Thigh High Garters: Consider adding garters if you're worried about slippage, ensuring you remain as comfortable as stylish.
Keep Them Smooth: To avoid friction or rubbing, apply a bit of lotion or body oil around the band area to help the thigh highs glide smoothly over your skin.
