Comfortable Body Stockings
We now will carry XXL in body stockings,
which measures out to be at size 24!!!! Thanks to my friend Yini
for spurring me into cutting the new pattern.
I love this bodystocking! The
fabric and construction are so comfortable,
and it's very versatile. It's perfect for so many costumes. The design
is
really ingenious.

by Janie "Jenee" Midgley
This little booklet will explain how the different
styles can be worn
as part of your costume, how to dye them

how you can embellish them with paint to make them
unique, how to embellish them with sequins and beads
for extra glamour, and the care and cleaning of your
body stocking. Photos and Diagrams
through out! And now all photos are in color!!
All this for only ... $6.00 !!!
($5.00 with the purchase of a body stocking)

Paint" section
One of Designs By Janie's specialties is the Comfortable
Body Stocking
, but what are they you might ask. They
are body stockings with a snap crotch closure
for ease of dressing and comfort after you
are in your costume. The snap crotch flap snaps
in the front just below the bikini line so it won't
show above your belt. The body stockings are made out
of stretch lace, stretch mesh, and some specialty fabrics.
We do not use heavy power net.
They are not designed to hold you in like a girdle, but
rather mold to your body. Best of all they wash like a dream
and they can even be dyed.
Fabric care recommendations
can be found on the
Sizing and Product Information
page.
"We are still wearing our black body suits,
in fact I wore mine at Rakkasah this year ... can
you say 5 years of wear! Good Job. We love them!"
Saiedeh, co-director of Sirens In Sanity.
Shown right to
left: Style A, Style B, Style C, and the
back of Style C (same for Style B, but sleeveless)
Style A
is the 'classic' body stocking that
you attach to your bra
.
Instructions for attaching the Style A
to your dance bra are included.
Style B (the
most popular) is sleeveless with a back and shoulders to hold
it up with no fastening to
the bra needed. It scoops down in the front
below your beautiful dance bra and can be worn
over the bra or under it as you choose.
Style C is just like Style
B only it comes
with long straight sleeves.
Body Stocking Prices
Style A = $35.00, Style B
= $40.00, and Style C = $45.00
Wondering what the style B would look like
with your bedlah? Well it does have a back to it so, from
the back it looks like a vest. If you have long hair it will
hardly show. From the front, here are some photos ...
These are close up of course, from a distance the
shoulder seams almost disappear.
