Seamed Hold Ups
Multi-buy available
£3 off each pair when you buy two — applied automatically at checkout.
Seamed hold ups are defined by one visible detail: the back seam.
Unlike plain hosiery, they’re chosen to be seen. The seam runs straight down the leg, drawing the eye and subtly lengthening the silhouette.
This collection includes black seamed hold ups and classic back seam stockings with lace tops and defined finishes.
Not background. Not everyday.
A deliberate line. Worn intentionally.
What is Seamed Hosiery
Seamed hosiery is defined by the distinctive line running up the back of the leg. This simple detail creates a more structured silhouette and has long been associated with classic hosiery styling. Today the look appears across a range of designs, from elegant everyday styles to more decorative seams that highlight the shape of the leg.
Many modern designs from brands such as Ballerina and Black Secret reinterpret the traditional seam with intricate patterns, contrast colours and refined detailing. Whether subtle or statement-making, the back seam remains one of the most striking features in hosiery. To learn more about the different styles, explore our seamed hosiery guide.
