Charnos have declared October 20th to be National Stockings Day. Apparently some girls between the ages of 20-25 have never worn stockings - unbelievable! - which may explain why some guys have never seen the seductive sight of a stocking top. How wrong is that! Stockings were probably at their fashionable height between the thirties and the late nineteen-fifties when they were derigeur for any Hollywood actress of fashion Diva. Sadly they have fallen into the shadows of the fashion scene with the advent of the jean culture and a more casual appearance.
The fun, awareness event can both reinvigorate the hosiery industry and more importantly give support to Breast Cancer Care (BCC). The work of this charity, among others in the field, is vital for the continued development of better screening techniques and improved treatments. The inspirational event will encourage women who have never worn stockings to try this most elegant and sexy form of apparel. Why not try a suspender belt too and create the knockout effect...
Incidentally, you have to admire those gorgeous girls at the Buckinghamshire-based ad agency, Nobull communications. These plucky girls have given it their all at a celebrity photo shoot with '10 Years Younger' Nicky Hambleton Jones for client Charnos. Charnos has created pink ribbon lace top stockings and hold-ups, modelled here by Vicky, Kally, Nicki and Jo (above L-R).
The Sun newspaper has also joined the fight to protect our stockings with the 'Time to save our stockings feature, don't let the side down - show these guys what sexy really means...
The fun event has a very important message for women but will also help raise awareness among men about the prevalence and seriousness of this horrible cancer which affects many women worldwide.
