Thread: Body stockings - referrals, anyone?

Hi, I have never worn a body stocking before and do not want to just go and buy something on E-bay because everyone of those have stockings all the way down to feet~ I only want torso coverage to wear with a new black bra/belt set that I am wearing with a black L.Rose trumpet skirt that has the lacing on each hip. I want to wear a black fishnet body stocking with this ensemble because I am just too pale. Can anyone recommend a site that has comfy fishnet bodystockings?
Thanks, all!

I love her work and you can email her about fishnet.

I´ve been extremely happy with Belly Stockings Under Bust
or SHIFTING SANDS BELLY DANCE BOUTIQUE items - Get great deals on BELLYDANCING DIRECT, TUMMY STOCKINGS items on eBay Stores!
Bodystockings are *true to size*,holds up well to wear&tear,very stretchy(w. lots of lycra)
They ship fast and have much more in stock than what´s up on the home page or Ebay.

:: See Fit Body Stockings :: Body stockings for dance and stage
and she might custom make. Very good service.

Just the other day I got mine from Belly dance direct, same one Emma-Bessa linked to. It is really nicely made. Soft material but pretty firm hold.
It is just a teeny tiny bit too short but I am tall and have a long torso so... It does fit though and looks great. Very satisfied customer here

I have purchased from both See Fit and Belly Dance Direct and I have the same problem as I am tall. In my experience See Fit are a little more generous and fitted my long torso better. Both were great quality though. Just worth bearing in mind if you are tall.

I'm friend with Eshta on FB and she recently posted her new line of body stockings, different colors available with little sparkles on them. I suggest you contact her!

I just visited her web site and don't see anything on it about body stockings. Do you have a link to the actual page that has them?

She posted them on her FB page, you have to log to see them. That's why I suggested Nisima to contact her.

Here's a teaser pic from her FB gallery:

Another vote for Flamenco Diva. I have 2 of her body stockings. The fit is good and the colour actually does match my skin tone.

Hi,
I have just read your quote and to help you find what you are looking for there is a site that you may be interested in - Belly Dancing Direct.
Hope this helps you.

Thanks everyone!

If you have a long torso belly dancing direct will make you an extra long one. I'm tall and asked if they would and they made it 2 inches longer and didn't charge me any more. here's their email sales@bellydancingdirect.com
Btw they are doing a promotion on face book at the moment with money off

Thanks Shimmy Sue! That is great info!

I always had great experiences with the lady who runs See Fit... highly recommend! I STILL have the first belly cover I bought from her years ago and it's in great condition.

Etoile:

Which color did you order from Flamenco Diva? We might be close in skin tone and I've been trying to decide whether to order from them.

These are the swatches you can order from Flamenco DIva. I was looking for a blue purple that would match my costume.

I got brown - it was a pretty good match. I also like the fact that these bodysuits have snaps in the crotches which makes it easier for using the bathroom. (although someone did suggest pushing the snapless bodysuits off to the side when using the bathroom).

Flamenco Diva body stockings rock! Nearly indestructible, great variety of colors including skin tones. I liked the snap crotch and she's a really nice lady that is willing to address fit issues you might have as she did for me. Good prices too.

Designs By Janie has been doing snap crotches for over 15 years. Check us out a Designs By Janie - Belly Dance costumes designed by a Belly Dancer

Our snap crotch is not on the bottom, but more a diaper level.

Dahlal sells them with a cutout underbust and sleeves, so you don't have to pin them to your bra. They also are making (almost) sleeveless versions, which should be on the website in about 3 weeks.

Is there a burgundy color in those swatches? I'm looking for a burgundy body stocking. I'm trying to match a skirt that is on the purplish side of burgundy. Thanks.

Aha!I haven´t noticed this since I´m only 161 centimeters tall,that would be 5´3 in feet&inches

Anyway I have had my (3 orders)of body stockings from Belly Dance Direct in my mailbox only about 3 days after I´ve ordered,and it´s great to know about your experiences in fitting

Now I´m looking at the Dahlal colored ones to match a fuchsia costume,thanks aziyade for telling me about the sleeveless ones!:)
