Donna Karan Sheer Tanga Pantyhose
It is quite a while since we said that a pair of tights flowed out of the packet, but these did; the light sheer legs just moved softly over out hands until brought up short by the weight of the tanga brief.
Donna Karan might be one of the most well-known fashion designers ever. The name is known across the world, but best known as DKNY, their clothing division. Donna Karen itself is far more than just this one collection though. Today, we want to look at their tights, so let us dive in.
Donna Karan is an incredible designer that makes all types of beautiful clothing. But one of their smaller and lesser known ranges is their hosiery collection. Donna Karan tights are as elegant and high quality as their clothing. They have an incredible pedigree and experience, and that experience translates perfectly into their new collection of legwear. Donna Karan tights are steeped in experience, but like any skilled designer, they are full of fresh ideas too.
Their hosiery range isn’t expansive but rather selective instead. Donna Karan’s first collection was only a dozen items, but each one is amazing. They all have an iconic look or specific purpose. Each one is a classic, such as their sheer tights that are suitable for any occasion. Or their stylish Donna Karan opaque tights. These remain toasty throughout winter. And of course, their matte ultra sheer tights, legwear that never goes out of style. Donna Karan tights are incredibly fashionable and well made, as fans of her clothing will tell us. If you want something timeless with a pedigree, Donna Karan is for you.
It is quite a while since we said that a pair of tights flowed out of the packet, but these did; the light sheer legs just moved softly over out hands until brought up short by the weight of the tanga brief.
Soft and smooth are the two words that spring to mind when you first take these tights in your hand, they feel delicious! Opening them out you realise that softness was the gorgeous shaped sheer leg (we estimate around 10 denier).
The light sheer legs are made long and generous, so the Lycra provides fit rather than stretch unless you are full in the leg. The sandal toe detail and satin sheen on the legs give a classy and sophisticated look.
The control top is conformable and keeps the legs perfectly in place. The degree of control is not overly great, more of a smoother than a shaper. Great looking comfortable pantyhose.
The packet notes for these tights tell us very little other than what Donna Karan thinks about sheer pantyhose, there are however two interesting facts about the hosiery anorak. So what do you get for your £10?
We first looked at these tights, more correctly pantyhose as they are from the USA, several years ago, our comments then were somewhat brief so now that our friends at Alex Blake have provided a new sample we are taking another look.
