Have you ever made one yourself from cutting out the crotch and toes of some plus-sized fishnet hose? I know it sounds like it wouldn't look good but they usually turn out great. Also if you like the fingerless glove look you can just cut holes for your fingers.

Just be sure not to cut the hole in the crotch too large. It will expand a bit after you cut it and better to cut too little and have some extra material to work with and cut out a but more.

(Or if you want to take a little more time for a more finished look, here's some instructions from alt.gothic.fashion newsgroup)

"get two pairs of fishnets,

one pair goes on your legs. cut a hole in the crotch

of the *other* pair stick your head through the hole,

your arms into the lags and wiggle your fingers until

they poke out too. voila! instant fishnet shirt. if

you've got a little time you can (although this is

technically sewing) (a) cut the toes off and re-sew

them so that your sleeves are arm-length instead of

leg-length. (b) trim the edge of the neckline with

black ribbon so that it won't fray "

Leg Avenue makes them in queen one size. Finding someone who carries 'em is the hard part. rhondasfashions on eBay carries a lot of Leg Ave. plus stuff... most of it in her store so they don't show up in a standard search.

whoah... "alt.gothic.fashion"- is THAT what "AGF" stands for in all those eBay auction titles?

Yep.

It's from back in the days before messageboards when Usenet was king of the net.

Try Priscilla's they carry Leg Avenue and a decent plus size selection. Even if they don't their prices for fishnet tights are pretty damn good.

heh. I was on a major plus-sized fishnet top search about a year ago.

Ended up getting mine from Hot Topic's website. But they're not plus-sized, they're just the largest size available in the men's.

They're tighter than I like. And I need to open the necks up more to be less masculine and more fem.

Damn if I'm not going to try the tights thing. Holy crap, what a good idea. And they come in so many different colors, too!!

You say Usenet...

I say...

I love you.

lol

I still go there sometimes.

Some of it's pretty much a rest home for old geeks, and alt.gothic is a kinder, gentler place than it used to be. I kind of miss the way they used to eat newbie's livers

alt.gothic.fashion is still lots of fun though and lots of good fashion ideas.
