Modelled Raisa Hosiery By Fiore

A while ago, I did a photo shoot, and wanted to show you what it looked like. I also wanted to show you what Raisa hosiery [my review], looked like. Here is my chance to hit 2 birds with 1 stone. Enjoy!

I did not just take a photo and post it on the web. The Stylish Fox also used an closeup of my leg for the Raisa Opaque Tights [by Fiore] product page.

This is a real milestone for men in hosiery. Typically, men do not model hosiery. Unisex hosiery and specifically men's hosiery are modelled by men, but even still, those opportunities are rare. Also, there is some hosiery that could be unisex, but it is packaged as women's hosiery, so women model it. Men typically do not get to model for this.

I read about 1 fellow who did this, and he got paid, too, if I recall correctly. He appeared to be so feminine, that he was able to pass for a woman.

In this case, I am not trying to pass for a woman, and I am also trying to not look like a man. In the photo, I am just modeling the side of the leg, for the purposes of giving a realistic closeup look. Since it is not showing a lot of the body, it will not be a turn off for picky women. Also, the side of the leg does not always come across as muscular. At least, it does not for me.

I think that that is where normal guys can contribute to the hosiery industry. There are very few photos that give a close up look at the fabric.

Would any of you men or women model for the purposes of selling hosiery?

Went Out In Sheers

It has been so long since I wore sheers. Yesterday, I wore sheers that had a beautiful shine. The sun reflected on it, and made me feel proud.

I was a bit hesitant at first, but it seemed like the right thing to do. I have spent so much time wearing opaques, that I feel that I have lost sight of the goal. If I wear opaques, then people will think that I am wearing athletic wear. The athletic style should be good for people who are pressured to not wear hosiery. It would come across as being casual and athletic. With sheers, we could have the same, but sheers would break down boundaries more.

Also, as I walked, I looked at my legs, and enjoyed the shine. It had such distinct line. The rest of the fabric shined as well, but it seemed almost matte in comparison. I will write another blog post to properly define it, since I have never heard anybody speak about the shiny line.

Do any of you insist on wearing only opaques?

Designing Hosiery And Organizing Hosiery Products For Ecommerce Sites

Lately, I have been thinking about starting my own brand of hosiery.

I think that a key aspect of a successful hosiery line is lots of information. Giving out as much information as possible on the company website would help to support sellers of my products. Also, providing a promotional kit to the various companies that sell my products, would help also.

Another key aspect is providing assistance to the consumers. I intend to create a style of skin colour hosiery, which means that there will be huge variety of colours. It would be nice to have some kind of tool like the MAC Cosmetics Foundation Finder.

Either Sheers Or Opaques For Summer 2012?

Summer is here, and I am considering whether or not I would like to wear sheers. I have not done this for quite some time, because I was trying to find something clearly visible, that would blend in to today's styles. Unfortunately, doing that means many misconceptions, and could easily have no effect. After all, if people do not think of me as a man wearing hosiery, then what happens?

Therefore, I will try to wear more sheers for summer 2012.
