Donna Karen Product Reviews

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.
