Pretty Polly (hosiery) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Pretty Polly (hosiery) Pretty Polly is a British brand of women's tights based in Belper, Derbyshire. ==History== The company began in 1919 when Harry Hibbert and Oswald Buckland built a factory in Sutton-in-Ashfield, near Mansfield in Nottinghamshire. In 1927 they took over a hosiery wholesaling company that was previously owned by the daughter of a bookmaker who had gained financially from the racehorse ''Pretty Polly''. The Pretty Polly trademark had a parrot as a logo, from another use of the word 'polly'. By 1957, the brand was number two in the UK and the company was bought by Thomas Tilling, who also owned much of the Walton Hosiery company in Sutton-in-Ashfield, which owned the ''Ballerina'' hosiery brand. The two companies were merged in 1961 as Pretty Polly Holdings Ltd.
