penders, stockings make way in the fashion industry once more
Sales of suspenders and stockings are increasing once more as more and more women copy popular celebrities such as Lady Gaga and Kylie Minogue, wearing heel lingerie stockings during their performances. Their “underwear as outerwear” look seems to have attracted the masses.
High Street retailer Debenhams attributed the increase in sales in the cooler weather where consumers can get away by wearing the aforementioned items.
The retailer revealed that black suspender belts and stockings have become in demand with sales rising by more than 230 percent over the past month. This resulted to the store searching for more patterns to accommodate the increasing customer demand.
The interest in suspenders and stockings declined a few decades ago due to the emergence of supporting tights. However, Debenhams spokesperson Ruth Attridge said that the unpredictable weather has worked wonders on how they’re selling their products.
