Wallace Carothers and other DuPont researchers developed nylon in the 1930s as a silk substitute. DuPont built the first nylon plant in 1939 and sold 64 million pairs of nylon stockings that first year. During World War II, nylon production shifted to support the war effort through parachutes and tents. After the war, nylon stockings were in high demand but short supply, causing mobbed store lines and "nylon riots." Nylon stockings revolutionized the industry but eventually declined as the miniskirt trend made pantyhose more popular starting in the 1960s.

El tamaño de los senos, es un tema que preocupa a todas
las mujeres por igual, por el hecho de que la sociedad
siempre tiene la idea de que entre más grandes los tenga
una mujer más atractiva es para los hombres. Esto, por el
hecho de que día con día, la televisión y las películas,
nos mandan este mensaje.
Muy contrariamente a lo que muchas mujeres podrían
pensar en la actualidad, la obesidad no influye de
ninguna manera en el tamaño de sus glándulas mamarias, existe una gran
cantidad de mujeres gorditas que poseen senos pequeños, asimismo, también
existen chicas muy delgadas que de manera natural poseen senos
exuberantes. Lo cual indica indirectamente que el tamaño de los senos tiene
que ver más bien con otros factores, propios del crecimiento y desarrollo del
cuerpo.
El período en que las glándulas mamarias suelen aumentar de tamaño a una
velocidad acelerada es en la pubertad, asimismo, los senos suelen crecer pero
de forma más lenta durante la adolescencia y el resto de la vida. El principal
factor que permite esto, es el incremento natural de hormonas femeninas
como: los estrógenos y la progesterona. Por tal motivo, algunas mujeres notan
que durante su periodo menstrual o días antes de que este fenómeno suceda,
sus senos se notan un poco más voluminosos que en el resto del mes. Por otro
lado, el crecimiento más notorio de éstos se da durante y después de cada
embarazo.
En la actualidad, una gran cantidad de mujeres, buscan aumentar el tamaño
de sus senos a cualquier costo. Es grande el número de mujeres que compran
las famosas cremas estimuladoras del crecimiento, que lo único que hacen es
dejarle la piel de sus glándulas mamarias con un mal olor e incluso muchas
veces les llegan a causar infecciones en la piel. Otras, recurren a la ingesta de
medicamentos poco confiables, que alteran todo su ciclo menstrual al no ser
controlados por un especialista en este campo.

The nylon stocking is 75 years old
1.
2. The History of Nylon Stockings
In 1930, Wallace Carothers, Julian Hill, and other researchers for the DuPont
Company studied chains of molecules called polymers, in an attempt to find
a substitute for silk. Pulling a heated rod from a beaker containing carbon-and
alcohol-based molecules, they found the mixture stretched and, at room
temperature, had a silky texture. This work culminated in the production of
nylon marking the beginning of a new era in synthetic fibers.
3. First Nylon PlantDuPont built the first full-scale nylon plant in Seaford,
Delaware, and began commercial production in late 1939.
In fact, the first test sale to DuPont employees’ wives took place at the
company’s experimental station.
Not long before the 4,000 pairs of stockings sold out—in only three hours!—
DuPont had had women modeling nylon hosiery at the 1939 New York
World’s Fair, touting nylon as a synthetic fabric made of “carbon, water and
air.”
The first year on the market, DuPont sold 64 million pairs of stockings. That
same year, nylon appeared in the movie, The Wizard of Oz, where it was
used to create the tornado that carried Dorothy to the Emerald City.
4. In 1942, nylon went to war in the form of parachutes and tents.
Nylon stockings were the favorite gift of American soldiers to
impress British women. Nylon stockings were scarce in America
until the end of World War II, but then returned with a vengeance.
Shoppers crowded stores, and one San Francisco store was
forced to halt stocking sales when it was mobbed by 10,000
anxious shoppers.
Today, nylon is still used in all types of apparel and is the second
most used synthetic fiber.

8. This is the first pair of experimental nylon stockings made by Union
Hosiery Company for DuPont in 1937. The leg of the stocking is nylon,
the upper welt, toe and heel are silk, and cotton is used in the seam.
The nylon section of the stocking would not take the silk dye, and dyed
to black instead of brown. (National Museum of American History)

13. It wasn’t until May 1940 that nylon stockings became avai lable in stores. On sale for about $1.15 a pair - that’s about $20 in today’s money - the nylon stockings
were more expensive than their silk alternatives, but were more resilient and lasted longer. Hundreds of thousands of brown nylons sold out almost immediately,
and DuPont sold 64m pairs that year. DuPont sold $9m worth of nylon yarn in 1940 and $25m the following year.

16. Women who couldn’t get nylon stockings on the black market drew seams on the back of their legs so it would look like they were wearing stockings. Cosmetic
companies also started selling “paint-on stockings”. 1941,

War in 1941, manufacturing of nylon
stockings stopped so nylon could be
used to make parachutes, ropes, tents
and other materials for the war effort.

store stands. (Photo by American Stock/Getty Images)
27. The return of nylon stockings to the high street in 1945, when rations were eased after the war, led to queues that ran out the doors and down the block -- leading to
“nylon riots” in some places. Some 40,000 women lined up outside a store in Pittsburgh that had 13,000 stockings, while a shop in San Francisco had to stop selling
stockings after it was mobbed by 10,000 people. Demand stayed so high throughout the 1940s that DuPont demanded payment in advance for all purchases, even
from the most reputable of accounts.

40. The sam e fashion trend that had turned stockings into su ch a roaring success in the first place -- rising hemlines -- was eventually their undoing. As more women
started to wear miniskirts, they wanted a nylon underwear that would cover their whole leg. Tights became commercially available in 1959, and by 1970 sales of
pantyhose in the US exceeded those of stockings.
