We all have at least one pair of tights in our drawer. They are the most popular, the most flattering, and go with everything… but there is more to life than that. You probably always wear them with pencil skirts and black dresses.
Black and thick
It doesn’t hurt to have an extra pair in case they break because you’re sure to get some use out of them.
Semi-transparent
They are the most classic of all and are now very trendy. They are very sexy and look more elegant with party dresses than the thick ones.
With polka dots
They are more versatile than they seem. You can wear them in evening looks and also in your everyday life with basic colour-based outfits.
With hearts
An alternative to dots are heart prints. These tights are perfect for going out with your friends or even for work if you don’t need a very formal look.
Starry night
We love star-patterned tights for evening looks. If you choose gold ones, like these, pair them with jewelry or a garment in the same color.
Keys to wearing tights and getting it right
- Black is the most flattering. Celebrity’s word: they only wear black tights, which flatters the figure more than any other colour and is also easier to combine. If you still want to try other shades, we recommend dark grey and maroon.
- Thickness is everything . For several seasons, only sheer tights were worn, but now they coexist with semi-transparent ones . They may be a little less warm, but they look much nicer on the legs.
- Tattoo effect. Hybrid tights are also popular, i.e. those that are thick up to above the knee and then semi-transparent. This cut can incorporate elements such as hearts that are only visible if you wear them with mini skirts.
- Fishnet . Fishnet stockings have regained their glamorous air, leaving aside their more casual side. They can be worn with printed dresses as long as their base colour is black. In addition, these stockings now also incorporate applications such as pearls, very suitable for evening events.
- Polka dots . Polka dot tights have become a must. They can be worn both during the day and at night and always with black miniskirts or, as Eugenia Silva does, with party dresses.
- Fantasy . They are the queens of the most informal and night-time looks. They are worn with star prints, glitter or lines contrasting with other colours.
And how not to wear them
Just as important as pairing tights well is knowing when NOT to wear them under any circumstances. Flesh-coloured tights are very dangerous and should never be worn with sandals. The effect of toes stuck in tights peeking through the openings of sandals ruins even the most elegant look. If you are looking for the perfect tights for you then I would recommend Noosh, they have amazing and trending tights collocations that you will love.
If your problem is that your legs look too white or have marks, you can mix your moisturizing cream with a few drops of liquid foundation and spread it well so that they are not noticeable.
