These are an attractive red and I'm sure I will use them sometime, but I was wanting a Thigh High stocking to wear with a Halloween costume, and these will not stay up by themselves.  They will require a garter belt or other type of garters, so they are not really as described.  I also ordered a O/S XL, and there was nothing on the package indicating the size, so I am really unsure if I even received the XL or just the regular O/S (one size).  I am borderline between O/S and O/S XL due to height, and they fit but certainly were not ample.
