Default good quality dance tights?

Does anyone know of any good websites of shops in the Sheffield area that sell good fishnet dance tights?

I've currently got some nude fishnet tights from john lewis but they aren't exactly what I want.

Any help would be great.

Looking on yell.com it's given me these:

dancesceneuk.co.uk

That's the only website but it also mentions:

Dance Technique

Arabesque

Supadance Sheffield

Hope that helps

Thanks for that, I could have done that myself but I'm just being a bit lazy.

Has anyone bought any good quality fishnet dance tights and where did you get them from?

as with most things in life - check on ebay. Good quality dance tights can set you back £20, but sometimes you can get them for cheaper on ebay.

The best companies that provide dance tights are capezio and danskin. Danskin do a great range which includes seamed and footless varieties of fishnets

Danskin Fishnet Tights from Move Dancewear

This is where I noticed it but you could probably find them at different prices and a greater variety.

While we're on the subject - what are the best stockings to buy (bearing in mind how skint I actually am - not even funny!) ??

I ladder mine all too easily and it's driving me loopy - laddered stockings are so not the look I'm going for!

Also, I've been buying hold-ups instead of regular stockings - do regular stockings actually stay up on thier own and what are anyone's preferences?

Stockings need to be held up by a suspender belt or garters, hold ups do not. A lot of burlesque performers choose stockings as they have a more vintage look to them (and they also don't leave red marks on your leg) and taking them off has become a tricky but very sexy part of the traditional strip tease.

For sheer price consciousness go to John Lewis, they have rather nice stockings at very cheap prices. If you want to splurge a bit more there's La Perla, What Katie Did, and, if you win the lottery, Agent Provocateur.
