I used to have enough problems with my socks staying up as a child, often using a piece of elastic. But trying to get it just right so it didn’t fall down with the sick or cut off my circulation was an art in itself!
As for tights? When they were first available I was delighted and wore them to the school Christmas party, alas they were not brilliant and while dancing they sagged into large wrinkles round my ankles! (Not the best look!)
So I’m very impressed with how they managed it in Regency times, both men and women!

Thanks for this informative post. It made me think of the days I used to wear pantyhose.
