Maria La Rosa Socks & Thigh Highs

images via here. Vogue China, May 2010. Natalia Vodianova by Paolo Roversi, Styled by Nicoletta Santoro

We've never posted about socks before, despite the fact that they fall into the hosiery (and therefore lingerie) category, but after seeing these images from Vogue China we felt the time has come! Look how beautiful the hosiery is in each picture. It adds just the right amount of texture and it's a layer that simply completes the ensemble. The lilac striped stockings are our favorite....it's sexy yet works incredibly well for a daytime look.
You really need the right style & attitude to pull off this look...just imaging ourselves in knee socks and high heels simply conjures a comical vision. But for those leggy Natalia Vodianova types, it is quite a fashion statement.
In most, if not all of the images, Vodianova is wearing socks/hosiery by Italian accessories designer Maria La Rosa.

  4. So beautiful. I love the looks in these pictures, though those knee highs are quite impractical for those who don't have legs for miles!
