Tights are an Autumn/Winter fashion staple, but they’re making a bold statement with fresh finds this season.

Lace tights also return, adding a touch of romance to your winter wardrobe.

Dive into our guide to the season’s hottest trends and learn how to elevate your look, inspired by runway shows, and top brands like Wolford, Trasparenze, Oroblu, and loads more at The Tight Spot. 

Bold All-Black

Black is back and bolder than ever for A/W24, thanks to trailblazers like Max Mara and Prada. This season’s predicted biggest trend will be to black out everything! It’s all about head-to-toe black with an edgy twist. Imagine sleek, all-black outfits featuring opaque black tights that scream classy, sophisticated style. The star of the show for a blackout look is opaque tights which add a layer of warmth on those chilly days  - fashionable and practical! 

Whether pairing black tights with a Max Mara-inspired tailored coat or a daring Prada dress, opaque black tights are essential for effortlessly embracing the blackout trend. Try our Wolford Satin de Luxe Tights for a rich, luxurious finish, or the Charnos 100 Denier Tights for a soft matte look and all-day comfort. For those who prefer breathability with full coverage, the Miss Naughty 100 Denier Blackout Crotchless Tights offer a polished, shiny finish. When extra warmth is needed, the Silky 300 Denier Fleece Tights provide cosy comfort with their ultra-thick design, perfect for chic cold-weather styling.

The New Neutral

Is leopard print the new autumn neutral? We’ve seen leopard print kick off in 2024 as one of the biggest trends, along with the bold red tights. However, animal print is here to stay. Patterned tights with leopard print have always been in the fashion hall of fame, symbolising luxury and edge. This season, designers have taken this classic motif and spiced it up with fresh energy and modern twists, with these fashion tights seen on every runway. From traditional leopards and more exotic inspirations, the A/W runways were a safari of style in animal print tights. 

If you're feeling wild and free, try our Ballerina Leopard Crotchless Tights or our new Trasparenze Talitha leopard crotchless bodysuit for a romantic date night or pair it with a chic oversized blazer for a girl's night out. If you love the print, but subtle is more your vibe, we’ve got the perfect pair for you! The Trasparenze Tureis Mock suspender tights feature a classic, sheer nylon with a sexy leopard print surprise up top. Another great choice is the Wolford wilderness tights for a subtle yet sexy pattern.

Olive All The Way

Last season, coloured tights, especially cherry red dominated the fashion world, brightening wardrobes with bold and passionate energy. As we transition into autumn and winter, the colour craze has shifted to a more understated but equally captivating olive green. This versatile shade took over the runways, with olive green tights becoming the must-have accessory for A/W24. The olive tones pair well with the season's earthy tones. Whether styled with chunky knits or elegant coats, they offer a trendy twist, proving that olive green is anything but boring this season.

At The Tight Spot, we have the perfect shades to pull off the olive trend. Try our Wolford Satin Touch Tights for a sleek, luxurious look. For a higher denier and shine, try our Wolford Neon 40 deep green tights that add a touch of luxury and glam to your wardrobe. For a hint of texture, the Fiore Fusil Diamond Tights offer a unique pattern that elevates your look and adds dimension. When you want a vibrant twist on the olive green trend, our Trasparenze Oleandro Tights in shade petrol provide a striking hue that makes a bold statement. These versatile options prove that olive green is the essential colour of the season!

Plaid Perfection

Plaids and tartans are making a bold comeback for A/W24, adding a bold flair to seasonal fashion. This trend, championed by designers like Burberry, Dior, and Alexander McQueen, reimagines traditional patterns with modern twists. Dior, in particular, showcased the enduring appeal of tartan, seamlessly blending heritage with haute couture, influencers and fashion enthusiasts are eagerly adopting these classic prints, showing their versatility in everything from tailored suits to statement outerwear. Whether it's a chic tartan coat or a pair of tartan patterned tights, these bring a bold twist to your winter wardrobe. 

Stay stylishly on trend, blending heritage prints with modern fashion with our Trasparenze Botein Contrast Leg Fashion Tights or our Oroblu Fur Tartan Tights for a classic plaid pattern with a cosy touch for the winter season. We also recommend our Oroblu All Colours Scottish tights for a vibrant colourful option that can easily be styled for day or night. If colour isn't your thing, try our Fiore Alex checkered patterned tights for a contemporary take on traditional plaid.
