Hot Hosiery

Updated: Apr 24, 2023


Now that we have passed Halloween and Guy Fawkes night, it's time to finally accept its about to get a lot colder! Transitioning to a more winter appropriate wardrobe can be an exciting time; looking out wooly jumpers, buying a new coat and polishing up those winter boots. Layers will become your best friend and thinking about the bottom layer is just as important as the top.

Choosing cozier intimates is all part of the winter wardrobe. While plain black or nude tights are a practice staple, it can be fun to mix things up and make your legs the focal point of your look. I have put together some fave hosiery pieces to complement to your winter style.


Fiore


Fiore are a Polish brand that offer a wide range of tights, stockings and socks. They combine Parisian Chic with Italian sex appeal to create fun and sleek designs. They offer a good sizing range with their XXL going up to 60"/150cm hip measurement. Their 'Golden Girl' style would be perfect for a Christmas party worn with a mini skirt and heels with the gold anklet peaking out. The graphic 'Eyes On' and 'Faces' tights are more of a statement and would be ideal for a fun winter look.

Falke



Falke are a long established German brand. Their main offering is quality, everyday tights, but they do also have some fun, fashion pieces. The floral print Rhonda tights are designed in collaboration with Liberty London and are a real statement piece.

Wolford



Wolford are a classic luxury brand that offer some iconic luxe basics as well as fashion pieces. Their hosiery range is no expiation to this with their black tights coming in at a pricey £123. These are my top picks from their more statement pieces. The 'Antoinette' tights are the ultimate kitsch item featuring a pink and white rococo print.


AMI Apparel



AMI Apparel make gorgeous, hand painted tights in their Paris studio. Their designs are unique and as everything is painted by hand, no products are identical.


Calzedonia



Despite being predominantly a swimwear brand, Calzedonia offer a wide range of tights and stockings. The brand describes themselves as 'classic and cool' and this range of tattoo embroidery tights definitely warrants this description. Unfortunately their sizing range is small and while they offer some information on the brands sustainability, this is an area that still leaves plenty to be desired.


Snag



Snag offer inclusive, sustainable and affordable tights. Their bright coloured tights are instantly recognisable, but they also have a range of patterned and fishnet options. I am personally obsessed with their faux-garter styles.

Which is your favourite pick? Is your winter wardrobe ready to go?
