Another new brand coming my way – and I am excited to try these! This colour looks divine, and I cannot wait to dress them up!

Kudo Nylon Stockings are a gorgeous glimpse into the golden era of nylon hosiery, when sheer stockings were considered the height of modern elegance. Brands like Kudo embraced the innovation of nylon in the 1940s and 50s, offering women stockings that were stronger, smoother, and more affordable than their silk predecessors. These classic nylons often carried a beautiful sheen and a delicate feel on the leg, making them a favourite for both everyday wear and special occasions. Wearing a vintage pair today brings that same sense of timeless glamour and understated sophistication.

These were purchased from a private seller.

Autumnal feels here, and I love it. I am so into browns at the moment, so this is a happy moment! I wore my bodysuit, paired with a statement skirt and added simple court shoes to complete the look.

The Review

The Packaging

Getting Them On: I wasn’t too sure of the sizing here, but regardless I am still gonna get them on and spend a day! Care was taken this morning to get them on, and the hosiery gloves were on too (minus this shot for the blog). I took my time to do my scrunch and roll, before sliding them up the thighs and setting them in place.

I used a 8 clasp suspender belt with these today.

On The Legs: ohhhhhh ho ho ho! This colour is GORGEOUSSSSSS! This brown is just so classy, and it makes my legs look stunning. I really need to dabble in darker shades more. It’s such a soft brown, which I love as it just adds to my outfit without overpowering.

The quality of these I cannot fault. They have stayed pristine all day, thanks to a longer skirt, but I did manage to snag them as soon as I got home. You can tell they were made really well, just by touching them ad having them on your skin. I literally did not want to take these off.

The fit of these worked well for me. I had a little room around the knees, which I didn’t mind as it adds to that ‘vintage feel’. Plus it was hidden under my skirt. They sat well and stretched out enough so it felt like a second skin.

The feel of them are ultra smooth, and super soft to touch. I honestly loved having them on my legs!

The Toes & Ankle: okay we are working with some goodies here! Got the reinforced toe, the heel and also a lovely seam between it all. When I slipped into them, I was in awe with all this detail! It’s a shame that my shoes were hiding it for most of the day!

Around the feet and ankles, I had a semi-smooth finish, with wrinkling around the ankles.

The Bands: my welt with this pair is a single one, with no reinforcement sitting underneath. I don’t mind that at all, but it would have been nice to have a double one! My clasps gripped on really well, and they stayed put all day with no issues.

It sits flush against the skin It does open up as much as you want it to, so it doesn’t end up squeezing you.

My Thoughts?

What a pair! I am in love with these! They are such a beauty, and I literally cannot fault them!
