Over-the-knee socks
Post By superjumper. 14/11/12, 12:14 pm

Hi guys!
So i'm needing to buy some over the knee socks for my latest cosplay - Fionna from adventure time!
If you don't know who she is, here's a picture:

Spoiler:

I'm just wanting to know if any of you know places to get some over the knee socks that would work for this outfit that WON'T fall down? I've bought some over-the-knee socks before and i got seriously frustrated at having to pull them up every 5 seconds. If any of you who have had some good ones can you please tell me where to get them?
I'm probably going to either sew or paint on the two blue lines in her socks, so i just need some plain white ones.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

I feel your pain, over the knee socks are so annoying when they fall down! You could try keeping them up with sock glue or spirit gum?

Pretty sure any over the knee socks are going to fall down. I know Farmers sells them. You could always just stick them to you with fashion tape or double sided tape. I did that with some thigh high stockings one year.

One trick I sometimes use is buy the skin-colored tights without the band thing on the thigh and safety pin the thigh high socks onto them. c: But I think sock glue would be best?

My goal is the next Hamilton Armageddon! I'll be going as Fionna one day and the Black Widow the other.
