Whether you're navigating the brisk days of winter or adding a finishing touch to your outfit, the right pair of tights can make all the difference. In this ultimate guide, we'll explore everything you need to know about tights, from choosing the perfect denier and how to care for them to pairing them with different outfits, this is your guide for everything tights related.

WHAT IS DENIER?

Denier is a term that holds the key to unravelling the mystery of tights and their unique characteristics. It refers to the thickness of the fibres used in the composition of the tights, affecting both their appearance, opacity and warmth. The higher the denier, the thicker and opaquer the tights become, providing greater coverage and warmth. On the other hand, lower denier tights are sheer and lightweight, offering a more delicate and subtle look. In our Definitions collection, we offer both 40 Denier Shaping Control Tights and 20 Denier Shaping Control Tights, allowing you to choose the perfect denier to suit your style and the occasion. Whether you opt for the enhanced coverage of 40 denier or the sheer elegance of 20 denier, our tights are designed to complement your beautiful legs in comfort and style.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT COLOUR TIGHTS

Choosing the right colour of tights can significantly elevate your outfit. The key is to consider the overall look you want to achieve and complement or contrast your tights accordingly. For a classic and versatile option, black tights are a timeless choice that pairs effortlessly with almost any outfit. If you're aiming for a chic and modern look, experimenting with coloured tights can be a game-changer. Opt for deep jewel tones like burgundy or emerald for a touch of elegance or go bold with vibrant hues like red or mustard to make a statement. Natural-toned tights are ideal for a subtle and polished appearance, seamlessly blending with your skin tone. Whether you're going for a classic or daring look, the right colour of tights can be the perfect finishing touch to showcase your unique fashion sense.
