This lovely weather has really cheered us all up, with thoughts of long sunny days to come – hopefully !
Tightstightstights have selected a few of our most popular styles of sheer hosiery to help you decide what you may need to complete your outfit for those special occasions you may have lined up this season. Whether it be a special wedding, a summer garden party, raceday or holiday, we have hosiery to suit.
Our sheer hosiery starts at a very sheer 5 denier and goes up to 20 denier. If you prefer more coverage, you may prefer a 30 denier or even 40 denier style.
The lighter denier’s can give you the bare leg look whilst looking more polished, and feeling more secure in your appearance . They are generally a matt finish , although some have a slight sheen. Prices vary from Pretty Polly 5 denier with Sideria or Gipsy 7 denier Better than Bare to the premium brands Falke Invisible Deluxe 8 and Wolford Naked 8 .
Toeless tights and holdups have become increasingly popular in recent years. There is no need now use streaky fake tan! Most of the popular manufacturers now have toeless tights in their collection Pretty Polly Naturals Open Toe Tights being one. Falke Open Toe Holdup is the only toeless holdup on the market at the minute, hence they are very popular.
The most choice available in sheer hosiery is in the range of 10 – 15 denier. It may be that you feel slightly more secure in this range than the lighter deniers. There are various finishes to this range, matt, soft shine and glossy. It really depends on your style, the occasion, and the outfit as to what suits best. Kunert Fresh up 10 uses a special fibre to ensure you stay cool, Gipsy Soft Shine offers a subtle sheen and Levante Class tights are a good choice for a glossier finish and are available is a multitude of colours to enhance any outfit. Manufacturers, in the main, try to cover all size requirements , the Pretty Polly Curves range are specially designed for the fuller figured lady. You may feel that you are more comfortable, for your special occasion, in pair of tights which offer some shaping, and there are lots to choose from here also, such as Aristoc Hi Leg Toner Tights.
Wolford Satin Touch 20 is one of our most popular 20 denier styles which offer extra leg coverage, yet still have a lovely sheer, shine appearance. This denier can be useful for covering slight blemishes on the leg.
