How Do You Wear Fishnets?

[fashionista-ta]

^ Hmm ... I am pale and have nude, brown, and black fishnets. I prefer the darker ones myself ...

This thread reminded me of the only time I've ever worn fishnets, I was 12-13 and wore them with a denim mini... There are tasteful ways to wear fishnets I'm sure but I just avoid them now.

Fishnets are great for either adding texture and depth, subtly subverting a conservative look, or both.

-tweed pencil skirts /twin sets and pearls.

-when layering a variety of prints or textures in similar colors

-adding interest to shoes: patent mary-janes for a dancerly look, or adding depth to strappy heels

I have them in black, chocolate, nude, and also a fuschia/black mix which goes especially well with vintage print dresses from the 60's and 70's.

I used to wear them with a black leotard for tap dancing. I don't think I will bother with them again though.

I just wear the fishnets by themselves.

I prefer the dark ones.
