Fashionable tights for autumn-winter 2008-2009

Tights have always been used to complement ladies’ outfits.

Now they are no more an accessory, they are a solo fashion trend. And you put them on to brighten up your looks and make yourself more noticeable rather than just to match your dress.

There are classical styles that are always popular. For example, herring-bone pattern, check, stripe, floral and geometrical décor.

Evening pantyhose have a metallic gloss, ornamented with spangles or patterns. Tights for everyday use have to be elegant and monotone.

And, of course, black tights, that are fashionable all year round. Just scroll through winter collections by Anna Sui, Oscar De La Renta, Chanel or Emma Cook and you will certainly see black tights with slight glossy effect.

However, the basic trend of tights fashion for this season is unusual combination and mix of colours and styles.

Bright colours. This autumn and winter tights of these tints are must-have items of your wardrobe. You can find them in Ioannis Dimitrousis and Richard Nicoll’s collections.

Bright opaque pantyhose are presented by Basso & Brooke, Eley Kishimoto, Pucci, John Galliano, Jasper Conran, Moschino and Sonia Rykiel.

Expression. The collections of this season look like a kaleidoscope of various extraordinary models.

For instance, D&G line has a lot of chequered tights in plaid style. Anna Sui, Chanel, Emma Cook, Rodnik, Philosophy, Paul Smith, Cavalli and Emporio Armani’s collections include polka dot panty hose, patterned, python tights or the ones embroidered with cloth leaves or spangles.

Red tints. Colour trends of this season are red tints, rich red-brown colour or raspberry pink hue. They are widely represented in Bottega Veneta and Caroline Charles’s colletions.

Chocolate brown is popular in Ben de Lisi, Biba, D&G, Celine and Paul Costelloe’s shows. Celine, DKNY and Dolce&Gabanna prove the constant fashion for grey colour, now it looks more silver than grey.

Fishnet (Mesh) tights. Those ladies who prefer mesh tights can be happy as they are again in fashion. Lacy mesh tights are included into Rodarte, Baby Phat, D Squared, Betsey Johnson and Emma Cook’s collections. The modern version of mesh tights are distinguished by some elements of Gothic style.
