What's your job? Haven't seen many CPAs or attorneys wearing fishnets to meet with clients.


Yes, because that is all we are here.

What about bank tellers, consultants, IT professionals, real estate professionals, retail store workers, interior designers? Think outside of the box with this one. I think more people around the country who would work jobs where they COULD get away with fishnets, than those who have super conservative finance, big law, or government jobs.

Let me first ask you why you think fishnets are inappropriate? If she's wearing something that goes to her knees or longer, why does it matter what hosiery she's selected to go underneath? Let me also ask.....Is SHE inappropriate for wearing pantyhose, or are YOU inappropriate for sexualizing your coworker? Because her legs are covered. She'd be justified in filing an EEO on you for this.

I work administration at a prison, and I've never once been told my pantyhose are inappropriate, fishnets or otherwise. Why? Because they're just hosiery. And they're worn under things that are dress code compliant. Fishnets aren't sex-exclusive. Men just sexualize them. And when they sexualize them in the workplace, they get HR called. Because the pantyhose aren't inappropriate, but that kind of behavior absolutely IS. What a person chooses to cover her legs with is no one else's business.

Fashion has changed. They used to say women shouldn't wear trousers to work. Anything to distract from real issues like the gender wage gap

Nude micro fishnets are more comfortable and give a much sheerer snd natural look to my pale legs anyway. They are very very micro but I like how they feel and look. I will try and post a link. I think they are Calvin Klein.

There are plenty of fishnet-adjacent stockings that are appropriate for work: some have intricate patterns with really small holes that are quite beautiful. Large fishnets are a little vulgar, especially if too tight and worn with equally borderline clothes, but dress codes have relaxed so much in certain workplaces that I can understand why some people wear them.

Please also note that the exact same outfit worn by one person can seem risque, and on another person seem perfectly fine. "Fit" is very important.

What I find most inappropiate, however, is you, who are judging without even knowing where this person was going.

The thighs are the issue, not the fishnets

+1. Don't understand someone doing a search on a topic, reading a thread from more than a decade ago and thinking, yeah, I'm going to add my opinion. Just don't!

Guess it depends on the career path. Was she heading into a hotel room?

Hah I didn’t even notice the dates. I was just scrolling through the thread and saw the outfit pics and thought … man those are dated … people are definitely not still dressing like that but I guess with the usual advice here I shouldn’t be surprised … and I looked and it was literally a post from 2014, go fig. I wore a lot of patterned tights from 2010-2014ish at my jobs so it tracks!

I work with all men. I wouldn’t even wear a skirt or dress.

Flashback--graduated h.s. in 1972, we all wore fishnets and textured pantyhose (and regular pantyhose). It wasn't at all about being trashy back then. I remember white fishnets being pretty common as well.

I rarely go to the office but I use to wear nude small fishnets and loved them
