seamed stockings
Back-lined leg wear
Seamed stockings are hosiery with a visible line running up the back of the leg.
Before the 1960s, stockings were manufactured with a seam where the fabric was joined; the seam became a style marker.
Modern seamed stockings are usually seamless with a decorative line added, evoking mid-twentieth-century glamour or burlesque aesthetics: She wore seamed stockings with her vintage dress.
