RETE GRANDI Black Fishnet Hold-Ups | Large Hole | Lace & Silicone Grip Band | S/M & M/L

The RETE GRANDI are large-hole black fishnet hold-ups with a lace-topped silicone grip band. The large hole fishnet pattern is the defining design element — it reads as more fashion-forward and deliberate than fine-mesh fishnet, with a bolder visual texture that shows well against the skin. The lace band at the top is both decorative and functional: the silicone grippers on the inner edge hold the stocking in place without a suspender belt, which is the key practical advantage of hold-ups over traditional stockings.

Made from 88% polyamide and 12% elastane — a standard hold-up construction that provides the stretch needed for a comfortable all-day fit across the S/M and M/L size range. At $17.60, these are a strong value for a branded, quality-finished hold-up with a proper silicone grip band.

Key Features

• Large-Hole Fishnet Pattern: The oversized mesh creates a bold, fashion-forward texture that reads differently to fine fishnet — more editorial, more visible, and more intentional as a style choice. Works as a statement detail under skirts, dresses, and shorts
• Lace Top with Silicone Grip: The decorative lace band at the top of the stocking conceals the silicone gripper strip that holds the stocking in place. No suspender belt required — the silicone grip is sufficient for all-day and evening wear when properly positioned
• 88% Polyamide / 12% Elastane: A well-established hold-up construction — the polyamide provides durability and the elastane gives the stretch that keeps the stocking smooth and snag-resistant through movement
• Classic Black: The most versatile and widely worn fishnet colorway — works with black, navy, burgundy, and neutral-toned outfits. The large hole pattern means the black reads more graphically than fine mesh
• Two Size Options: S/M and M/L — hold-ups in a stretch construction fit a range within each bracket. See sizing notes below

Sizing Notes

Hold-up sizing is based on height and weight/hip measurement rather than shoe or dress size. S/M is suited to smaller frames and shorter heights; M/L accommodates taller or fuller figures. The elastane content gives the hold-ups stretch within each size bracket. When between sizes, M/L is generally preferable as excess length can be folded, whereas a too-short hold-up will not stay up reliably.

How to Wear

The large-hole fishnet works best as a visible design element rather than a subtle layer — it’s meant to be seen. Under a mini skirt or dress with heeled ankle boots, the fishnet texture becomes part of the outfit. Under a midi skirt with a visible slit it appears as a flash of texture when moving. Under tailored shorts with heels, it adds a fashion edge to a smart-casual look.

To get the best hold from the silicone grip band, ensure the leg area is dry and free from body lotion at the thigh — oils and lotions reduce the grip effectiveness of the silicone.

Care Instructions

• Hand wash cold — do not machine wash
• Do not tumble dry — lay flat or hang to dry
• Do not bleach or iron
• Store flat or loosely rolled, not bunched, to preserve the mesh structure
