During that time women could not show their legs without there being some cover on them.The stockings are reinforced at the heel and toe. There is a design on one side of each of the stockings The design is white flowers with pink and green. The tops of the stockings are reinforced and stretchy so that they fit over the thigh. There is a blue line 4.5 inches from the top. The stockings were held up by either a garter belt or a girdle that would have had suspenders with clips.
