Warm Women's Tights: Fogal Cocoon

The Fogal Cocoon tights complete the selection, under a wool skirt or a knitted dress. Warm women's tights are chosen to be opaque and thick, for very cold days.

Women's Leggings: Falke, Urban Classics and Carpatree

The three-quarter Falke Warm leggings from the German brand, the Urban Classics leggings, plain, striped or flared, and the seamless Carpatree Elite leggings are worn for sports or daily use. The women's legging is worn with a long sweatshirt or a tunic. The black legging remains the easiest to match.

Black, Skin-coloured or Coloured Tights

The opaque black women's tights go with everything in winter; the fine skin-coloured tights go with a light dress in spring; the coloured tights, burgundy, green or blue, are worn with a plain outfit for contrast. The black women's tights match well with ankle boots or heels. Patterned tights, polka dots or fishnets, dress up an evening outfit.

Choosing Your Tights: Denier, Size and Shaping

The denier number measures the thickness: a small number for sheer tights, a large one for opaque and warm tights. The size is found on the packaging chart, according to height and weight. For a plus-size women's tight, the brief should rise to the waist without constricting. Thermal tights, thicker, are worn under a wool skirt in very cold weather.

Tights, Leggings and Underwear: The Full Selection

Tights and leggings also include sports leggings, and women's underwear completes the drawer. The legging or the tight: the first is worn alone, the second under a skirt.

How to Avoid Snagging Tights

Put them on while seated, with filed nails and rings removed, rolling them down to the toe before pulling them up. Hand-washed or in a mesh bag, in cold water, they last longer: the opaque tight doesn’t snag as much as a sheer one. A spare pair in the bag helps in case of a snag.

Fleece Tights, Glittery Tights and Beige Tights

Women's fleece tights, lined on the inside, keep the look of sheer tights while keeping warm in very cold weather. Glittery tights, shiny, are reserved for year-end parties with a black dress. Beige tights, more covering than skin, match camel tones and brown boots.

Frequently Asked Questions About Women's Leggings and Tights

How many deniers for warm tights?

Over fifty deniers, the tights become opaque; the warmest tights go much higher. For winter, an opaque tight keeps warm under a skirt.

Why do tights slip at the crotch?

It is often too short for the leg length, or not pulled up enough when putting it on. A longer model, rising to the waist, stays in place: the tight should not wrinkle at the knee.

Tights or leggings under a dress?

Tights cover the foot and are worn with heels or ballet flats; leggings, stopping at the ankle, are worn with ankle boots or trainers. Under a short dress, the opaque tight remains the most stylish.

How to wash tights?

By hand or machine in a mesh bag, in cold water, without fabric softener, then laid flat to dry. The tumble dryer stretches the elastane.

Coloured tights: what to wear them with?

With a plain dress or skirt, black, grey or camel, to make the colour stand out. A burgundy tight matches well with brown ankle boots.
