Agent Provocateur Commercial

Okay, yeah, this is the best commercial ever made, and obviously proves the point that people in other countries don't have the same stick up their bums that many Americans seem to when it comes to sexual material in the mainstream media. This aired on broadcast television, including that red-hot thumb suck.

Thanks to my friend, Fluffy, for turning us on to this one. More videos...

Single Ladies (Big Girl Mix)

Stick around for the highly awesome splits at the end. This is truly one of my favorite posts ever on Stocking Vixen. Yes, I'm not sure anyone is wearing hosiery, but I have posted about Beyonce's Single Ladies before and there are some great legs on display in this video, so I'm posting this, damnit!

Found this on fuckyeahchubbygirls

Kicks Pantyhose Commercial

I love it when the ad agency understands their market. She actually gives a back rub with her nyloned foot midway through the commercial! More videos...

Japanese Pantyhose Commercial

See? Pantyhose can cheer you up and make you adorable, as seen in this commerical for Sabrina hosiery made by Gunze in Japan.

Blue Peter and Corsets?

This video is wrong in so many ways and I don't mean the memories it has brought back of pink trousers. Isn't Blue Peter a children's program? Why were they doing a segment on corsets and why does one of the male hosts take a photo for his "personal album," when there's an underage girl in the group of females he's photographing? It's just weird. I can't be alone in my confusion, therefore I share it with all of you.

Akira Lane's Pantyhose Exercises

Akira Lane does not play fair as she demonstrates her exercise routine while wearing pantyhose, a cocktail dress and pretty high heels. She doesn't break a sweat, but the viewer very well might. More videos...

Joi Lansing

A Stocking Vixen reader sent me the link for the YouTube video above which brought the very sexy and legtacular actress and singer Joi Lansing to my attention.

Even though she appeared in Easter Parade with Judy Garland, Orson Welles's Touch of Evil, I Love Lucy, and The Beverly Hillbillies, all films and televisions shows I've seen, I'd never heard of her, possibly because it seems more of her high-profile work was on television shows like Love that Bob that weren't still in syndication when I was was a little girl. She also, sadly, died of breast cancer at the very young age of 44, and stopped working in about 1970.


I'm very glad for places like YouTube where people can still discover performers they haven't seen before or I would never have heard her wonderful singing or enjoyed the happy burlesque sexiness of the Silencer video. I wonder if the backup dancers had pruney fingers and toes by the end of that shoot, though.

Justin Timberlake Parody of Single Ladies & Beyonce in Ballet Boots

I don't actually think the Justin Timberlake portion of the video is particularly funny, except I do enjoy stupid dancing every now and again. However, I can certainly get behind the sheer amount of hosiery and heels on display in this video, especially during the cross cuts between the parody and the actual video for Beyonce's Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).

Beyonce videos are usually very good for some glimpses of hosiery and one fantastic video for that is Green Light, which, really she should be given a medal for having made. (The Golden Leg?) It is a parade of gorgeous hosiery along with some beautiful outfits. Beyonce in a garter belt and latex stockings set my stocking button a-tingle. I was just awash in heels, pantyhose and stockings. She and her dancers wear ballet boots in one sequence and they look amazing on their legs, if incredibly torturous. I've watched video in the past of women on You Tube trying to walk in ballet boots and I find it amazing how well Beyonce and her back up dancers do with them.



As a general precaution, I believe you should probably sit down before you peruse this post. It may cause palpitations or dizziness and Stocking Vixen and her subsidiaries (aka my beagle, Poppy) are not responsible for anyone who falls and hits his or her head while viewing these videos.

Beyonce was on my mind today because Thierry Mugler released some drawings of the costumes he designed for her world tour which starts tonight with a show in Edmonton. It's no surprise that her glorious legs are on display. Since the show kicks off tonight, I'll wait until tomorrow to see if I can find actual photographs of the show rather than post the drawings here.

Sexy Nurse in White Stockings

I think many readers of Stocking Vixen are going to find themselves heading as quickly as possible to Belgian hospitals after seeing this humorous advertisement featuring a very sexy nurse in white nylon stockings going to work on a "dying" man.

Bettie Page and Tempest Storm Teaserama

I find it bizarre how contemporary these images are starting to look to me since I've been so immersed in the world of stockings. Also, I would love to have Bettie Page dress me and afterward, I would do this silly little dance and make happy faces with her.

Postwar Nylon Stocking Psychos

I know many people who read this blog dream of days like this returning when, post WWII, "stores had to impose quotas on sales (of nylons) to prevent outright mayhem in the aisles," and "a man with a pair of new nylons in his pocket was better off than a G.I. in Germany with a hatful of chocolate bars."

But then that horrible Christian Dior ruined everyone's fun! I love the guy smiling at the end of this video so much. More videos...

How to Wear a Garter Belt

I ran into this very basic garter-belt-wearing instructional video last month on Fool For Your Stockings a very simple and fun celebration of one man's obsession with stockings. He mixes photos of real women (including me, once) with those of celebrities (who I suppose are, technically, real women, too) and includes other media when appropriate. I enjoy his collection of tutorials, which include how to walk in stilettos, and how to put on black fully-fashioned nylons, which involves a lot more bending over to show your heiny to the camera and caressing of thighs than I had realized, no wonder I have issues with wrinkling!

The site is discreet, but as I have yet to look at every single page. I would suggest that if you are concerned at all, clicking through on the links above may be safer at home than at work.

The Shape of Your Legs

Dylan is an independent musician and cartographer from France, influenced by artists as diverse as The Kinks, Lucinda Williams and Beck. He is also a very gifted songwriter and guitar player. He posted his song The Shape of Your Legs online at iCompositions.com (which is a massive resource for free music from independent musicians from all around the globe)in November of 2008, and I have loved its simple beauty since I first heard it. Clicking through on that link above will take you to a page where you can download the song free, if you would like your own copy. You can also hear and download more of Dylan's music there.

This song is an acoustic guitar instrumental, but he plays styles all over the map. He has a rocker with lyrics by Debaser Jones, Six Feet of Trouble, with this great chorus:

She's six feet of trouble with five feet of leg
Six feet of trouble with five feet of leg
Looks so good, God, you know you gotta beg

Since discovering iCompositions and other sites where indy musicians give their music away, I've bought fewer commercials mp3's over the years. The database is truly a goldmine in every genre of music you could imagine and, free of commercial concerns, people have come up with some really innovative and interesting things.

The Seductive Power of Stockings

A wonderfully whimsical cartoon commercial from a German hosiery manufacturer that shows men drawn helplessly to Dolores and her beautiful bestockinged legs. I love the scene at about 1:38 where the men are blissfully hugging her ankles.
