Timeless Whites and Fairy-Like Frills
A timeless neutral shade that simply never goes out of style are ivory and milky whites. Despite the popularity of classic white outfits year after year, the introduction of white tights has been the talk of the town following this year’s fashion shows. Taking centre stage at the Chanel SS24 Haute Couture Show, white tights were paired with Chanel’s luxury tweed outfits and feminine frills to complete each look. This created a completely monochrome effect with different shades of white and cream, with the occasional hint of black for a striking effect. Designer giants such as Jacquemus, Vivienne Westwood and Carven also unveiled pearly whites and chic cream styles in their recent runway shows, highlighting a stunning high-end look.
For the perfect white moment, explore our white tights range or bridal stockings which can also be worn for other occasions such as special events or simply for casual wear. Simple yet high impact, white tights create a trendy and unique look to any outfit!
For a Chanel-inspired outfit we would recommend the Cecilia de Rafael Chacal 50 Tights. These 50 denier tights are highly pigmented therefore offer a bold white finish. Completed with a smooth matt finish and comfy feel, this style is ideal for creating high-fashion getups without the high price tag. Another great option for an incredibly feminine look with a sexy edge is the Passion Floral Shiny Crotchless Tights, crafted with a gorgeous floral brief area and 30 denier material. These open crotch tights showcase a shiny finish for a flattering glow, brightening up any ensemble for less.
It’s giving Snow Queen in Spring!
Set the Pace with Lace and Florals
When you think of Spring and Summer, florals are at the top of list! The great thing is florals and lace are back for yet another year, truly encompassing the connotations of these seasons. Paris Fashion Week saw Celine presenting floaty lace dresses with floral designs in fairly neutral tones, maintaining their Parisian style and undeniable class. Bringing a touch of Italian luxury to fashion week, Valentino also sported floral looks in more vibrant shades such as romantic red for a showstopping ensemble. One of our favourites was Givenchy who encompassed vintage florals amongst their elegant looks. Featuring a mix of pastel tones and sheer floral embellishments, these trendy outfits highlighted grace and sophistication.
Lace tights and floral fashion tights allow you to be as bold as you please, meaning you can tailor this trend to your own unique style and occasion.
