Max Mara Velato 20 Tights

Max Mara Velato 20 Tights

20 denier pantyhose. Double covered Lycra, sheer waist, low waisted. The pleasure of a new feeling on the skin rediscovered in its elegance and lightness.

 

Our Review

These are entirely sheer to waist tights with a shaped leg and heel.  The most distinctive design feature is the very thin waistband, about 5mm deep.  This is similar to that found on Wolford Logic and Ibici Concept Tights.

The body is finished with flat seams and a lined gusset in all sizes, the toes are very lightly reinforced.

Despite being 20 denier these tights are almost invisible on the leg and they feel delightfully light and smooth.  Essentially matt finished there is just a hint of sparkle when the light catches them just right.

Max Mara Velato 20

20 Denier, 88 % Nylon, 12 % Lycra, Price: £10.00

The design is deliberately low waisted so you can have the thin waistband sat low on your waist or hips, this is ideal for wearing with low skirts or trousers that sit low.  There is enough stretch in the material to pull them up a little higher if you choose to. Be aware though that the panty area in general is not generously proportioned, if you have large hips you may find it a little snug.

Fit is excellent from hip to toe with no bagging.  The waistband, although narrow, is comfortable and keeps everything in place even on a taller wearer.  The lightly reinforced toes are entirely invisible.

Excellent tights that we can highly recommend.
