Tights and Pantyhose

The term denier is often referred to as the thickness of tights but, to be more specific, denier refers to the weight of the yarn that was used to make the item. A higher denier of yarn makes a thicker pair of tights. This means women’s tights with a low denier (10-15) are sheer and lightweight, great for a subtle look. Higher deniers (50-100) are thick opaque tights that are great for full coverage and added warmth in the colder months. 

Tights have a figure-hugging fit and therefore flaunt your natural shape and curves. Women’s pantyhose also create a smooth silhouette under tight clothing which can enhance your figure in all the right places. Pantyhose can also help you show off your legs no matter the occasion, whether you require flawless sheer pantyhose to cover up imperfections such as discolouration or scarring, or high-fashion pattern tights for a trendy look. With a super smooth-to-touch feel and gorgeous finish, women’s tights are classy, elegant and sophisticated which makes them not only incredibly flattering and comfortable but also highly attractive!

The great thing about tights is that they never go out of fashion! Despite tights being around since the 1800s, the tights and pantyhose world is constantly evolving in line with new trends which keeps them current and contemporary for a number of occasions. Women’s tights continue to be part of everyday wear for work and casual outings as well as a form of transforming outfits easily and cost-effectively. 

Absolutely! Pantyhose are so versatile for any outfit and occasion. For formal events, go classic with sheer options like a sheer navy, nude, or black to keep it classy yet polished. If you’re looking for something more playful and bold, experiment with textures like cable knit or sparkles for parties or the festive season. Opt for bold colours like pink, blue, or yellow to add personality to your look. From polished business, cocktail glam, and even bridal chic, our collection of pantyhose has you covered for every occasion. 

When it comes to styling women's pantyhose, there are no rules and it’s fun to try new shades or styles that you haven't before. In addition, patterns like stripes, dots, or even subtle prints can take your look from basic to stylish in a snap. Bold-coloured tights can be a real statement piece -pair them with neutrals for a pop of colour or go monochromatic for a sleek vibe. Layer sheer tights under ripped jeans for an edgy vibe or under a skirt for a touch of glam. Tights are a year-round accessory - transition from sheer tights in summer to thicker textures in winter.

Layering tights is a legwear game-changer. Mix different textures like sheer black tights under a pair of chunky cable-knit tights for a cosy yet stylish vibe that's the perfect balance of delicate and warm. Try layering bright-coloured tights like pink, yellow, or green under distressed jeans with rips. The pops of colour peeking through add an edgy and playful touch - it's not just about warmth; pantyhose can add a whole new dimension to your style game. So, layer up and let your legs be the trendsetters!

First off, be as gentle as possible when putting your tights on. We recommend sitting on your bed or a chair when putting your tights on to prevent ripping them when you pull them up. Trim those nails; they're like tiny enemies to your tights. If you're feeling extra fancy, you could even wear gloves to avoid any accidental snags! And if you're feeling super cautious, remove jewellery like rings or bracelets that might catch on your tights. Instead, add your accessories once the tights are on! 

To maintain the longevity of your pantyhose, we recommend sticking to handwashing with a mind detergent and using cold or lukewarm water as this is less harmful to delicate materials. Gently agitate the fabric with your fingertips to remove any marks. It’s best to pat dry your tights and avoid wringing or using a dryer as this can be harsh on your tights. The best way to let tights dry is by leaving them on a dry towel or soft surface to air dry for a few hours or overnight. Sticking to this guide on how to wash tights will ensure they last longer and keep their premium quality.
