Stockings and tights are what we just can’t do without in everyday life and particularly on special occasions. They complement attire perfectly or become the center of attention – everything depends on what effect we really want to achieve.

The collection of stockings and tights you see here was created by German company Falke that has been producing hosiery for over a hundred years. Owners of the company are the fourth generation of the family who dedicated their lives to making women happy by manufacturing the prenium-class hosiery.

All the items are hand-made and of a very high quality. Besides, the pieces are eco-friendly.

The line includes a few pairs of absolutely fabulous stockings and tights that come monotone or richly patterned. Patterns are unusual and pretty, some are funny and girlie.

Designers have extravagant view on all pieces in fashion world and one of them is new look at stockings and tights.

Now tights keep one of the top positions among accessories.

They are not only warm, but can make your image more exclusive and original.

In our days, elastane is used for tights and stockings that are presented in two main color ranges:

1) modest, semitransparent variants

2) grain-oriented frosted dense tights as neutrals tones and bright colors

Stylish tights for Fall 2009-Winter 2010 are very unusual.

Designers favor tights adorned with stones, sparkles, beads, braids and flowers and make them in bright colors.

Bold colors

Black and white colors look casual and for some times depressive, so in this Fall 2009 the grey tones are recomended for dayliwear.

Many designers suggest using bright palette.

Don’t be affraid to buy saturating color tights. They may be gold, navy, purple, red or other.

The preferable colors for A/W 2009 tights are red, purple, lilac, terracotta, brick-red, blue

They can not only enrich your look, but be the accent of your style.

Good news for women who need to hide their imperfections around the waist area. The leader in control-top hosiery, Spanx, has invented a new design of control tights that promises to provide women with the confidence that comes from feeling slim and trim.

Tight-End tights are the inventions we have been waiting for long. The tights are high-waisted and work by not only slimming your butt and thighs, but also making your entire torso and stomach perfect.

All unsightly bumps and bulges under dresses, skirts, and high-waisted pants will no longer be seen if you wear Spanx tights.

The only disadvantage for a wearer of these tights is that she has to don a body-glove undergarment that basically goes up to the bra. You might think it is very uncomfortable but those women who have already tried the new tights say the Tight-End tights have a soft and flat waistband that works to prevent pinching and awkward rolls.

I guess the new Spanx invention is wroth trying on. When you do, write to me about how they work!

Oh, these teasing stockings…

Stockings are surely for the brave women! Being a woman I consider stocking so very much tempting! Now days they combine both modern and classic styles at the same time!

Nylon stockings with silicon lace are free from the garters but not necessary! Lots of women feel comfortable only with the garter on. As a rule such stockings are made with a touch of spandex and elastic that improves the tension on the leg.

Stockings help to shape your legs greatly and hide the places you want. But it’s worth mentioning that you should be careful with the size.

Don’t try to choose stockings of the smaller size because your stockings will tear soon. Use the size table on the pack.

Colored stockings are very trendy now, but don’t go too far with tracery as far as stockings are the artwork themselves!

Black nylon stockings are the sign of hyperfemininity! Black color is so perfect for your image creation depending on the transparency!

Fish net stockings are extremely brave and provocative so that vogue industry sometimes can’t dare to have it! Currently they are trendy again! Fine net ones are especially spicy! Stockings changes woman’s behavior and life perception!

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.
