![]() For many Secrets In Lace has become a life style, our garments are worn by the worlds most famous and influential people. We are often called on by stylists around the world to provide authentic vintage lingerie and stockings for movies, television shows and stage performances. Our penchant for Vintage detail has lead us to become the exclusive designers of the Bettie Page Lingerie Collection from 2009 - 2014 and Dita Von Teese Stocking Collection. Designed for everyday wear (just like in the 1960's), Secrets in Lace carries classic styles and unlike lingerie that’s strictly for fantasy, the Salons at Secrets In Lace have comfortable Faux Vintage Lingerie for every possible occasion that captures a feminine, classic look. Our daywear slips, camisoles and tap pants are also authentic to the 1960's. Our preeminent position as the leader in fine vintage nylon stockings has led us to develop coordinating Retro Chic foundations Garter Belts, Girdles, Bullet Bras, Shelf Bras and Plunge Bras that are based on patterns from garments developed in the 1960's that we sold in our stores in the 1980's. We own and operate two of the remaining vintage stocking factories where we design and manufacturer the Secrets In Lace Brand. Today we are the largest retailer in the world of 100% nylon stockings with over 40 exclusive styles to our credit. ![]() Since then our mail order catalogue and website have been making history worldwide at. Our concept was a success and we quickly grew to four stores in the Washington DC Area before launching our mail order operation in 1995. We never changed what we sold because the fit and styling made our customers look and feel great. In our first store we sold classic foundations and authentic nylon stockings which today are popular as Retro or Vintage lingerie. They don’t irritate the legs in any way, which is always a bonus.We started SECRETS IN LACE ® in Northern Virginia in 1984 with the simple concept in mind of "Keeping the Romance Alive" through the sale of classically elegant lingerie. The feel of these are amazing they are super smooth, they are so soft to touch and they just gently caress the legs. I would make sure you check out the sizing guide before purchasing just so you get a pair that fits what you’re after. I normally work between Small and Medium, depending if I want more winkling, I want them to sit higher up the legs or if I want a fitted finish all around. The fit of these are true to size, and there is no biggie if you choose to go a size up. ![]() I also did make sure to take care when I got them on so no damage occurs, otherwise this pair won’t last me in the long run! The quality of these are once again on point I never seem to have an issue when I wear SIL, as they always last me the day without any rips or snags. This is a thin denier, which means you do need to be gentle with them from when you get them on until you take them off. The colour was perfect for me, as it worked with my skin tone really well and the contrasting RHT and welt just added that extra touch to really make them pop. I love the denier and that beautiful RHT and welt contrast too! I think it worked so well together, to create a look that can be worn all year round. I felt this was enough rather than showing the whole thing to keep that ‘hidden secret’ aspect to it. On The Legs: now normally I would hide the bands, but as I was creating an edgy look, I wanted to show them off slightly with the reinforced underwelt peering under my dress. ![]() The Secrets In Lace imprint on the welt adds to the authentic nostalgic details. My Deetsįrom The Website: Glamour, with its contrasting colors makes this Reinforced Heel and Toe stocking truly … Glamorous! The welt and foot are black with either a grey, beige, copper or pink leg. Well it’s more like military mode rather than boss mode – I paired up my faux leather shirt dress paired with my new Dr Marten boots to create an edgy look. Who says you can’t feel sexy and edgy at the same time?! Plus it’s a great way to show other people who do dress similar or have different styles like I do that this look is achievable and still looks great! I was feeling in a boss type of mood ( I have been like this for a while now lol) and decided to slay another way. Now I know a lot of you won’t agree with this outfit, but I don’t really care. I was sitting on my bed last night wondering how I could style these differently, to show that you can wear stockings in various ways… and then my idea popped up! Normally I tend to go super feminine, but this time I wanted to switch it up and do the total opposite. I decided I wanted to dress a little different in these stockings. ![]()
