I’m 6.1 feet tall (183 cm), 33.07 inches waist diameter (84 cm) and 35.04 inches hip diameter (89 cm). Most known hosiery brands make stuff for smaller, fuller women afaik.
One clerk told me to forget L and go directly to XL, but I’m new to hosiery and I don’t want to feel strange because there’s too much fabric hanging on my thighs or because the pantyhose or hold up simply falls down my waist because I’m so skinny for an XL…
Another clerk elsewhere said I should buy an L, so I’m confused.
Brands I’ve compared but not tried on are wolford and falke. I haven’t found any reputable brand that sells specifically to tall, skinny women. I’d be grateful if you could name some.

I was quite skinny but 5’9" and not so leggy. If they are thigh highs I’d buy your regular size and just let them end a little lower, that looks good. 35" hips on 6’ sounds like you may want to exercise though?
I know that’s not what you are asking! But I bulked and went from 32-30-33 to 38-31-42, and my legs went from 18" to 23". So more conventionally ‘pretty’ proportions and people still seem to think I am lean and slender.
