One fashion item that women will always love is ladies tights, as fashions may change but we will always need something to make our legs look lovely. The love affair with nylon began in the 1930's when nylon was invented, and since the 1960's, when nylon tights became widely available, women the world over have depended on them for comfort and practicality every day.
Nylon was cheaper than silk and so became widely used, although technology has moved even further since the invention of nylon, and tights and stockings are now made from lots of different materials. The invention of Lycra was another big milestone in the history of tights and it solved the problem of tights going baggy and wrinkly at the ankles. We even use it now in tights designed to shape and tone certain bits of the body, and there are whole ranges of Shaping hosiery available.
A classic and popular material for making warm winter tights is wool, which is comfortable, cosy and comes in many different colours. Wool tights are the perfect way to look stylish but stay warm during the winter months, and some very current colours include rich autumnal reds and deep, luscious purples.
When it starts to warm up a little but it's not quite spring women often turn to their faithful opaque tights. Opaque tights come in many different colours and deniers but they are a firm favourite for keeping legs covered and looking stylish as spring approaches.
The denier is how the thickness of the weave of the material of the tights is measured, it doesn't matter what the material is but the higher the denier the thicker the tights. Denier starts from about 5 denier, and sheer tights are usually somewhere between 5 and 30 denier. Opaque tights are usually 40 denier or higher.
Sheer tights are made from lots of different materials, like thicker tights, as the denier is irrelevant of the material.
Whatever your preference of style there are so many different styles and brands available to buy that you can get just about any sort of tights you like. They could be sheer, opaque, support, coloured, footless, wet look, shiny, matte, patterned, fishnet, or a combination of these!
Some women don't like wearing tights as they don't feel very sexy but you can get their alternative - stockings or hold ups - in nearly as many colours and styles. Tights can be very practical for every day but sometimes for special occasions you may prefer to go with stockings or hold ups as they make you feel more special.
Ladies tights will probably be around for as long as we are, and while fashions keep changing and technology advances we will probably change our tastes along with them, but we will never be without tights in our wardrobes!
