CP Esprit Couture Tights

Cervin Paris Esprit Couture Tights

Infinitely seductive.

The pre-1960’s style pantyhose with an authentic Edwardian 3-thread seam takes you back to the atmosphere of the 1940s and 50s. The sandal foot, the tapered, pyramid-shaped heel ensures that the seam is correctly positioned for maximum seduction.

15 Denier, 80 % Nylon, 20 % Lycra, Price: £7.50

Our Review

We really liked the Esprit Couture stockings so we have high hopes for the tights. Unlike the stockings the tights contain 20% Lycra.

On the card these tights have the look of classic nylon stockings, only when you unwrap them do you see the brief and the waistband that reveals them to be sheer to waist tights.

Our test pair were nude in colour with chocolate detailing (as per the photo). There is a deep reinforced toe and a knitted in fully shaped heel that comes to a classic point and joins the back seam. The seam is a fully stitched 3-thread seam, far superior to the seams on most seamed tights. The seam runs to the top of the thigh.

The brief is finished with a gusset and flat seams. There is a 2cm deep waistband with a 4cm deep reinforced band between it and the sheer legs.

The length of both leg and brief looks very good, probably made this way as the sewn seam will limit stretch lengthways.

The seam and heel are the sexiest we have seen on a pair of tights, and unlike many “fully fashioned” tights the foot is long enough to correctly position the heel regardless of foot size. In fact if you have small feet you may find the heel too far up your leg.

These tights fit beautifully and feel fantastic on the leg. The waistband sits well and provides a comfortable fit. A joy to wear and taken to another level by the classic detailing. High heels, a short skirt and a good evening out are all you need to go with them.
