For some it is a mere piece of clothing and for some a stylish piece of accessory. But, all said and done, stockings in all colours, prints, materials and styles are a big hit this season.

"Apart from classic black, beige and ivory, coloured stockings are a big trend. This season, stockings in jewel tones are in vogue, especially in the berry palette of burgundy, wine, purple and brinjal," designer Aniket Satam said.
