Our Review
In terms of construction all Celeste Stein tights are the same. Made sheer to waist with completely straight legs. The seam in the body is well made but not flat (US made hosiery almost never has a flat seam), there is no gusset. The waistband is about 2 cm deep.
Although even weight from hip to toe there is a band of a clearly different knit about 2 cm deep at the top on each leg, too high up for any but your closest friends to see, but disappointing.
The pattern is clearly printed on the back and front separately, we can think of no other way of adding a pattern to a pair of white tights, but it is a pity that no effort is made to match the pattern, you see a line up the inside and outside of each leg. How noticeable this is depends on the design, in this case as you can see in our photograph the line is very apparent.
Made one size there is plenty of stretch for the taller woman, Nora our model is 5’11”. Fit is good.
Nora really loved the spot design, certainly it is one for the younger woman looking to dress for fun either with a skirt or shorts... not sure about the dungaree style shorts Nora.
