    Body Stocking Specifics

    I've been nosing around in these threads for body stocking information and even though I have found some helpful advice, I still have a few questions so I thought I'd ask.

    I've seen a lot of people recommend Danskin fishnet tights as body stockings because they are seemless, which is awesome. But do they still hold in the extra "voluptua"? I have saggy tummy skin from losing weight and can not dance bare skinned, so I'm wondering if this seamless Danskin option is good for girls like me. It seems to be the most attractive version of coverage from the standard options out there.

    I have a body stocking from Sugarpetals. I like my sugarpetals with the control issue but my belly button can't be seen most of the time and the that just looks weird, not to mention the side seams. I want to know if the other stuff on the market has similar quality in terms of girding in all my girl-fluff.

    I see a powermesh stocking on Dahlal that some of you have recommended. Is it seamless? Does it hold in all the extra "voluptua"? Can you see your belly button while wearing it?

    Thanks for your help.

    Check red hot dancewear index Sarin will make custom sizes and is happy to work with you. She makes her own items so there's a direct line of communication.

    A friend lost a lot of weight and did not like the lost belly button appearance. She would carefully arrange the loose skin and then placed a small, dark jewel in her belly button. Not for the sparkle but to denote the actual belly button. Until she told me I always thought it was her actual navel. She called it tricking the eye.

    The power mesh ones I believe do have seams. But they hold you in like no ones business. They also will give you a Cabbage Patch Kids tummy. My suggestion is to bling up the stocking including a big old stone where the navel is! ;-)

    The fishnet ones hold in your extra skin and don't obliterate your bellybutton, at least on me.

    The fishnets absolutely hold stuff in, better than manufactured body stockings, in my opinion. And look more natural from a distance, even a bit sexy up close.

    Look for Danskin professional fishnets, they're much stronger than the regular kind. So they hold you in and they hold up to being pulled up and used as a body stocking.

    This is great! Thanks for posting this topic. Once I'm big with baby I'll either wear net or a dress for a little extra support and coverage on stage & was wondering some of these same things.
