Coquette Darque Wet Look Hold-Ups with Back Zip

I'm a size 16 so I bought the plus sized version of these, and they were HUGE on me. I'm talking so big I could fit about 4 fingers in the stockings once on.

So I bought this size. Now they barely fit around my knee, let alone my thighs. Really upset as I so badly wanted to wear these, but looks as though they'll never fit me.

It seems like they cater to the end of the scale. The plus size seems like it'll fit a size 20, this version seems like it'll fit a size 8 very well.

If you're a size 12/14 then get these. If you're over a size 18 then get the others. If you're a size 16 like me then... you're outta luck

I thought I’d treat myself and order these beauties. I put them on as soon as they arrived and they are a roomy fit (I’m 5’8, 14-18). I love the look and feel of the wet look material and found them to be comfortable. The zippers at the back of the stocking is a nice touch too. They are quite roomy and I would recommend wearing them with a suspender belt or something; as I found they tended to slip down whilst i moved about. The only let down for me is the foot area of these items. The wet look material stops at the ankle and is met with tights material. If you love to see your tootsies I’m sure you will love these stockings! However for myself, it completely detracted from the initial killer look. It kind of reminded me of the pedal pushers I used to wear as a teen!

These stockings are simply amazing to wear, I love how they catch the light and the zipped back make them easy to put on. This amazing pair comes with mesh below the ankle to prevent you from overheating. My overall impression of the stockings are that they can really compliment my legs. They can be used alone or with a full outfit, however the stitcking on around feet stand out a little when I look closely, so shoes are preferable in my opinion. The down side to these are that over time they can build up heat and become a little damp, normally I wouldnt mind however this in conjunction with the zip can cause rubbing and discomfort. I was genuinely enjoying wearing the stockings, until I has been moving around for over 20 minutes. Once I had taken them off there was only slight signs of rubbing from the zip. To me the feeling you get from wearing them far outweigh this tiny cost. Just so long as you are only wearing these for a session and not for a long time.

I saw these online and was instantly drawn to the zips. I opened up the packaging and was a bit disappointed to find they weren't as latex-looking as they appeared in the pictures. I tried them on, which was easy to to because of the zips. I understand that these are 'one size fits all' however that's not quite the case. I'm size 8-10 and don't have the slimmest legs in the world, but these just wouldn't stay up. When first putting them on they kept sliding down around the knees, and after a few minutes play wearing them, they just wouldn't stay up. I would say these would fit legs better that are on the wider side. I was a bit unsure about the mesh feet when I saw it mentioned online, and I'm still not sure after seeing them in real life. When I pull up the stockings, the mesh comes to above my ankles, which honestly just looks a bit silly. They may be better for someone with larger feet? (I'm a UK size 6).
