A metaphor about stockings could be: "Her legs were wrapped in a silky embrace, like a delicate promise held by the soft caress of stockings." This imagery captures the elegance and allure of stockings, suggesting not only their physical comfort but also the confidence they can instill in the wearer. It evokes a sense of intimacy and sophistication, transforming the everyday garment into something more profound.
Because "A Pair of Silk Stockings" is a Realist work, there are very few devices used. Realism aims to capture life as it is really lived, free of heavy metaphor or symbolic resonance.
