juliettedee: During WWII, silk and nylon stockings were in short supply. In Britain they had vanished from shops completely by 1940. Pants hid their absence, but women also resorted to Cyclax Stocking-less Cream, or other forms of leg makeup, completing the illusion by drawing seams down the backs of legs with an eyebrow pencil. I want Nylon lines for my next tattoo!!
