HELP! Black stockings with green seams?

[Lotta Courage]

I need to find some black stockings -- sheer or nets -- with green (emerald) back seams to complete an outfit like the one below from Secrets in Lace. Anybody know where I can buy some?

Thanks for the lead, but I already saw these at my local Fredericks, and, alas, no green. :( The teal is really a greenish shade of blue.

Aww, that's too bad :( If you really have difficulty finding them, you might consider making them yourself. A pair of seamed black stockings and a bottle of fabric paint in the exact shade of green you need, and you're in business. Fabric paint dries flexible, and as long as you have an existing seam to just run a line of paint over, it would be easy to keep it straight :)

Great idea! I was thinking trying to sew/weave some green thread into the seam of some stockings, but fabric paint sounds easier. Thanks so much!

Harlean thats pretty genius!

Fabric paint is your best bet! Harlean's got it right! It's hard to find nice stockings that are solid and then colored seams, because traditionally, whatever the color the stocking is, the seam will be the same color.
