Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Ok, we Americans have been almost completely liberated from pantyhose, and in Italy, almost every woman had on hose and it was HOT outside! I'm talking young professional, sharply dressed women and old shuffling women. I even saw young women in shorts with hose on. I saw zero bare legs, other than Americans! Eddie and I both noticed it and were surprised because you think of them leading the fasion trends, not us.

What's up with that?????

maybe they are UC´´s....they were watching for you!

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Ummmmmmm.......the shorts and hose doesn't really fit with the UC look, I don' think. Unless UC's are different in Europe. Who knows?

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

well...one thing at a time...maybe they started with hose...lol...I am being foolish so early...My boys are at a funeral of a man that got shot...think..I need so sleep!

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

They have to have something to control that unruly hair on their legs!

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Wow.... I was totally unaware of the American liberation of women wearing Pantyhose.

To the point that it is an "interesting clothing trend" that most women wear them in Italy?

Amazing.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

LOL!

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Yes, Digging, you can quit wearing them now, they're out of style. :D

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Hey... Don't go throwing accusations my way. I quit wearing them YEARS ago. :)

Jk btw... I've never worn pantyhose. Although I do buy them every year for my tomato plants. :) But those are just knee highs.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Your poor tomato plants are sooooo out of style. Poor things. They're probably humiliated.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Tomatoes got knees?

:heeheehee

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Tomatoes got no backbone. :)

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Well... For their own self esteem I pick them once they start blushing and bring them inside.

It doesn't help though because they turn full blown red in just a few days. :)

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Well, it's too late, everyone had already seen them. They can't just get over something like that quickly. The green bean plants had probably been ribbing them unmercifully.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

It's probably the Purple Hull Peas that do it. There are a bunch of them and they have a mob mentality. And some feel that they are full of hot air anyway.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

I think hosiery gives a finished look. I don't like bare legs at church or businesses. Casual wear it is fine. Nor do I like low riding pants on boys enen if it is considered the trend.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

The pantyhose being worn in Italy is interesting since so many fashion houses and designers originate there.
But renda may be on to something re the "shaving" , or lack thereof.

It would make sense if it were a colder climate.....like Finland perhaps.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

please note...anything I say is teasing Sherri...I do not think in any way ladies have to wear hose...just because I have been labeled UC does not mean I believe a lot of things that are associated with UC.´s...
I hate labels and just joke about some of this silly stuff...lol..so do not take my posts serious unless I say I am serious about something...

I wear tights some in cold weather, and sometimes (rarely) black hose just because I like the way it looks. But regular pantyhose - VERY RARE. I do use leg bronzer when I have a skirt on.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

black legs...white face....do not match!

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Leg makeup huh? :)

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Tell her to hurry sister. :)

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

LOL! I am hard to straighten out!!!

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Oh she get results in her revivals.....I will make sure she is here in November!

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

I detest pantyhose! They are torture devices! :foottap (But I have to wear them on Sunday morning. :sad )

Any man who preaches against bare legs should be required to walk 10 miles in another woman's pantyhose! :D

Well.

In pantyhose made for a woman.

Do they make pantyhose for men? :coffee2

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

panty hose keep away ticks and other nasty critters that attracted to your skin and groin areas when you are in a field (training or combat environment) for extended periods of time.


The only reason I have never wore them is because I have just never thought in enough time to get them when I need them. I know of guys who have used them, obviously not on a regular basis.


I haven't noticed if the ladies in my church where panty hose or not. Maybe I should go looking this Sunday! :)

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

Recommendations of a specific brand? I have seen it on women and it looked so fake - and orange color... afraid to try it. :blush

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

L'Oreal Bronzer in a brown tube. It's immediate and a good color. But it does have that funky smell and you have to quickly wash it off your hands.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

remember LOOK not STARE and certainly not FEEL. =)

most of the ladies in the church we went to in Tampa area did NOT wear them. Here in Phoenix I do not know if I have seen ANY women with them on.

Re: Interesting Clothing Trend in Italy
 

I do beleive these are tights not panty hose. To be more specific these are TIGHT tights. They rob from the rich and give to the poor, that's tight. =) one of our favorite movies. great for a laugh no matter how many times you watch it.
