These stockings are so beautiful and very well made. The look with the cuban heel in black with the nude stocking and finishing with the black top is stunning. I was so pleased when these arrived. I wear the plus size and they fit beautifully. I always wear a garter belt with my thigh highs since I love the look and guaranteed the stockings stay in place. These do have spandex on the top and seem like they would be fine either way. Very luxurious! I am giving my review 5 stars although it is only showing 4. They are a 5 star purchase in my opinion.
