Woman's Own April 4 1959 Page 48

Go for the textures that go with the times, the textures that tell you it's 1959 and stockings aren't just stockings any more. The country-going texture is Wolsey's Purmesh, cobweb of a lace-knit but firmly run resistant when it comes to meeting brambles point-to-point. The round-town stocking is Wolsey's Starmesh, a 15 denier shadowing of texture for day-long and dance-late wear. So go for the texture that's going your way, straight into the fashion picture. PRICE 9/11 (about $1.39 )?
