Fishnet stockings can be many things: They can be risque, bold, sexy, or reflective of a deviant or alternative demeanour.

Or Vaishali’s fishnets gaping out of her torn jeans.
Instagrammer Sherlyn too has worn fishnets with shorts and boots that look like she is all set to front a metallic band.
For some more inspiration, go back to how Kangana owned the look back in 2015.
Oh and before you go: A Public Service Announcement. For those of you who don’r approve of this style, kindly refrain from slut-shaming those who opt for it!
