Our Review

When you first open the packet there is little to suggest that these are control top tights, only when you remove them from the card do you see the heavy control panty that tops the sheer legs.  The legs have the look of classic 100% nylon stockings and are shaped, but not reinforced, at the heel.  The toes are very lightly reinforced.

The legs feel very smooth and almost delicate.

The flat seams in the brief are are some of the best we have seen, the cotton gusset should help fit and hygiene.

JOOP Transparent Matt Bodyshaper Tights

20 Denier, 84 % Nylon, 12 % Lycra, 4 % Cotton, Price: €15.00

It is only once you are wearing these tights that you can really appreciate them. The toe is almost invisible, and beautifully finished with a flat toe seam, and the legs look beautiful with a perfect smooth matt finish. 

Towards the top of the leg is a 4cm deep patterned band that gives the impression of a stocking top, above this is the support panty.  The panty is more smoothing than shaping, giving a very smooth silhouette under the most close fitting dresses.  The panty is quite long so take care if wearing with skirts or dresses with a low back, you don’t want to betray the secret of your trim outline.

These tights look great, flattering your legs and your figure. They feel very nice too,providing shaping without and constriction.  Our only reservation is that the heavy panty makes them very warm to wear. 

Sizing is accurate, perhaps a little on the generous side in terms of length.

Well l worth the price if you want or need the shaping.
