The best bet may be to layer stockings. ************* This is what I was thinking too. Unless you want a more rustic look with the wool, I'd get a pair of pantyhose or tights. They are very warm in themselves, but put your silk stockings over them and you should be quite warm....unless it's like way below freezing. The modern super-stretchy tights would be very smooth and more than likely undetectable under your correct period stockings. Even if you do get some fine wool stockings, layering may be needed to keep you warm. Are there not depictions of men in layers of different colored stockings...some rolled down a bit to show the layers underneath? Or is that too early? Too dandy? **************Start the year off right.
