Product Information

Full details

The Ann Summers Plain Top Hold Ups are designed for women seeking a smooth, flawless leg look to complement their lingerie or outfits. The key benefit is the self-adhesive silicone strips that eliminate the need for suspenders, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. A potential caveat is the importance of correct sizing for optimal adhesion and appearance. These hold-ups feature a plain, colour-matched top welt and a glossy, barely-there finish that enhances the natural look of the legs.

FAQs

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size guide provided. Typically, sizes are based on height and weight. For these hold-ups, the UK dress size is also a good indicator. Ensure the silicone band sits comfortably around the widest part of your thigh without digging in.

Can I wear these hold-ups without a suspender belt?

Yes, these are designed as 'hold-ups' with integrated silicone strips on the top band that adhere to your skin, eliminating the need for a suspender belt.

How long will the silicone grip last?

With proper care and hand washing, the silicone grip should maintain its effectiveness for a significant number of wears. Avoid machine washing, harsh detergents, and excessive heat, which can degrade the silicone.

Are these suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, they are designed for all-day comfort and hold. However, if you are engaging in very strenuous activity, you might consider additional support if you find they shift.

What material are they made from?

These hold-ups are primarily made from Nylon, which provides a smooth, sheer finish and comfortable wear.

Can I machine wash these hold-ups?

No, it is recommended to hand wash them separately in cold water with a mild detergent to preserve the fabric and the silicone grip.

What does 'Plain Top' mean?

It refers to the top band of the hold-up, which is plain and matches the colour of the hold-up itself, as opposed to having lace or decorative patterns.

Troubleshooting

Hold-ups are slipping down

Ensure the thigh area is clean and dry before application. Check that you have selected the correct size; if too large, the silicone band may not adhere properly. Re-adjust the position of the silicone band.

Silicone band is irritating the skin

Verify you are wearing the correct size. If the band is too tight, it can cause irritation. Ensure there are no lotions or oils on your skin where the silicone sits, as this can reduce adhesion and potentially cause skin reactions.

Fabric has snags or runs

Handle the hold-ups with care during application and wear. Avoid sharp objects, rough surfaces, and long fingernails. If a snag occurs, try to avoid pulling it further. Minor snags may not significantly affect performance.

Glossy finish appears uneven

Ensure the hold-ups are smoothed out completely on the leg. Sometimes, uneven application can cause the finish to look streaky. Gently re-smooth the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply roll the hold-ups down and carefully pull them up your leg, ensuring the silicone band sits comfortably and securely on your thigh. Smooth out any wrinkles.

Compatibility: These hold-ups are designed for adult females. They pair well with dresses, skirts, and can be worn under trousers for a smooth line. They are compatible with most footwear, but care should be taken with shoes that might snag the delicate material.

  • Do not bleach.
  • Do not tumble dry.
  • Do not iron.
  • Do not dry clean.
  • Lay flat to dry away from direct heat.
