Our Review

Fun!

First impressions are as they say everything, and in this case our first impressions even before opening the packet was that these tights just shout “Fun!”.  Of course a psychologist would on deeper consideration wonder why the designer opted for black hearts... but a little further investigation reveals that the top seller is red hearts on a white background... very “Alice in Wonderland”.

In terms of construction these tights are typical on fun fashion one size tights.  They have straight legs, no gusset, carry the pattern only between the reinforced toes and reinforced panty and they have a raised central seam. Quality is pretty good with the heart pattern well defined and the seams well finished.

Being 40 denier and with 10% Lycra there is both strength and stretch to allow these one size tights to fit ladies taller than the maximum 5’9” suggested on the packet, but the extra stretch allows for extra height not extra width as the panty is hipster styled and not so generous.

Good fit and comfortable too, the weight means they look white rather than showing too much leg colour, an impression helped by the contrast with the heart design.

Not quite the thing for the office perhaps but match up with heels, short shirt and lots of attitude to be centre of attention at parties.
