Gerbe Collant Diamant


	Gerbe Collant Diamant Fashion Tights, 15 Deniers aspect. “Diamond” matt studs placed on the ankle and legs. From the Gerbe 2004 Collection

	Our Review First impressions are quite surprising, just plain matt tights with very narrow looking legs, not what we expect to see on a card in a Gerbe packet. Unfolding the card gives us a little relief, there is the great Gerbe signature waistband. Other than that the look is quite unremarkable aside from the three patterns of studs on one of the straight legs. If the look is unexciting this is made up for the very soft feel of these tights. Made with flat body seams and a cotton lined gusset these are clearly of the quality expected of Gerbe

15 Denier, 76% Nylon, 22 % Lycra, 2 % Cotton, Price: £14.95

Leg length does not look great, but the fabric reminds us of seamless tights like Wolford fatal, and they look small but just stretch and stretch. With 22% Lycra in the mix these should stretch well too.

Oh yes, they stretch all right. You don’t so much pull tights like this up your legs as smooth them over them. The fit is excellent from the reinforced toes to the finger band and waistband, and if you smoothed them well the colour is perfectly even.

Very nice matt tights that are made just a little bit different by the stud pattern on the left ankle. The bottom set of studs may catch your shoes if you have big feet, a small problem with such stylish hosiery. An eye catching alternative to plain sheers for that big night out.
