Seasonal Looks: A Leg Up On Fashion

Posted: 10/18/2011

This season’s thigh highs join basic leggings and opaque tights as wardrobe essentials.

(NAPSI)—Must-have wardrobe essentials this season include pencil skirts, dresses and winter shorts, so the must-have accessory is legwear.

Legwear is an integral part of any trend-right ensemble and great for adding that finishing touch. The two most important fashion trends are Vintage Glamour and Simple Layering.

Vintage Glamour

Fashion welcomes back a sense of glamour—layers of sheer and lace mix with modern details to create a new femininity. Traditional luxuries are matched with modernized classics. Sumptuous fabrics and rich jacquards create a sense of savoir faire. Classic nets, thigh highs and beautifully sheer hosiery add a touch of elegant sophistication that can make any woman feel like true royalty.

Simple Layering

Sportswear separates reflect cleaned-up classics with a menswear influence for a new sophisticated yet casual trend that is polished and pulled together. Taking a cue from sweaters, tights provide color and comfort in a variety of opacities and textures and continue to be a wardrobe staple. Seasonless sheer tights provide the right balance between sheer and opaque. The newest look from runway to reality is the “blackout tight,” a soft, sleek black tight with maximum coverage. Tights can make any outfit chic and modern; they’re a true showstopper.

For one-stop shopping for all your legwear looks, check out Hanes Silk Reflections. Their new blackout opaques, offered in a tight and thigh high style, are light and soft in texture while providing maximum opacity. The Lasting Sheer Collection with run-resist technology includes the beautiful Ultra Sheer, Silky Sheer and Sheer Tight. This recent innovation in legwear prevents embarrassing runs.

The latest look involves a variety of textures and this legwear has you covered.
