A characteristic of Punk clothing in the late 1970s was the open weave knit known as “fishnet,” which is more frequently linked with hosiery. Read this article to know how to incorporate them into outfits and make a statement.
What is a Fishnet?
Fishnet is a type of hosiery with an open, diamond-shaped knit that is frequently used to make body stockings, gloves, and stockings, which are typically worn on the arms and legs by punk and goth fashionistas. But it’s also frequently worn by the general public as a fashion statement, and because it emphasises the wearer’s muscle definition by putting a grid near the body, it usually defines curves.
How do people incorporate them into their outfits?
Pair them with dark hues and big, statement-making pieces, or go for a lighthearted appearance by wearing your fishnets with vibrant knee-high boots, a miniskirt combo, and a turtleneck. You may also make a statement by wearing fishnets with a leather dress and platform heels or a tailored suit look.
Fishnet is typically knitted from polypropylene, merino wool, or nylon fibres, and it offers a number of advantages including that it can trap insulating air for warmth in cool conditions and allow for the rapid transport of moisture from the skin surface. This makes it a more practical use of fishnet in cold weather outdoor sports, such as hiking, hunting, fishing, skiing, and mountaineering.
