Help please.
Definitely NOT frilly!!
Metallic gold lace or tulle/gossamer perhaps to wear with these vintage clumpy shoes.
Any ideas please?

Swedish stockings usually have metallic gold (non-lace) or else vintage Gucci

Snooks1971 · 15/03/2022 22:10

Thankyou @MapleMay11 Google delivered gorgeous Gucci that I can’t get 😩, I will have a look at Swedish Stockings, the name rings a bell from this board…

@Snooks1971 Oh that's such a shame. The perfect ankle socks are not easy to find. Try Selfridges and Browns too. I haven't looked for a while but I have found some gems from both in the past.

Snooks1971 · 15/03/2022 22:23

@MapleMay11 yes exactly. Thank you. It’s like a needle in a haystack when you can picture what you want but cannot find. Trying your suggestions!

Disko Kids used to do them, I got sent a pair as a freebie a while ago. I'm not sure if they still have them.

Can't help but I love your shoes!

If you have found an image of a sock you like, put the image into a google image search and it’ll come up with similar products

Google Darner Socks. They are from California and do amazing sheer socks designed to be shown and great with sandals

ThingammyBob · 15/03/2022 22:36

Are either of these on Amazon suitable?

Bloody gorgeous shoes btw Grin

Snooks1971 · 15/03/2022 23:04

Wow thanks all, I didn’t really expect many replies! So tired after work but will be eagerly Googling tomorrow and will report back.
The shoes are vintage TopShop £7.99 from Vinted 🤩

Slightly drastic approach - get gold coloured wool/yarn and crochet or knit your own socks??

Purplecatshopaholic · 16/03/2022 13:14

Awesome shoes op!

Snooks1971 · 16/03/2022 21:23

@declutteringmymind I love these but sadly they wouldn’t arrive in time….
@Cocolapew and @waltzingparrot not as exquisite as what I’m looking for sadly (probably doesn’t exist!) but I’m bloomin ordering a 1971 hoodie from them!! And the socks too, just because.
