Our Review
Seldom have a pair of tights made such an impression and caused so much comment, it is no surprise that most Trasparenze stockists have selected this style from the Spring 2010 collection.
Tights featuring a stockings and suspenders design are nothing new, many have tableied to capture that look in a pair of tights; what sets these apart is that the design is styled on the idea of stockings rather than tableying to look like them.
The base tights are fine, soft sheer to waist tights with a sandal toes and a little shaping at the heel. The panty has well finished flat seams and a cotton lined gusset, plus a very pretty waistband that is as effective as it is is nice to look at.
The design features a ring of roses around each leg below the “stocking top” and more in the stocking top. The “suspender stableaps” are just narrow lines that join onto the panty design. The panty design is mostly lace and carries a Trasparenze motif on each hip.
The sizing is accurate and the fit is excellent. Our only negative observation was that if you are very slim the body may be a little long for the waistband to sit on your waist.
To the ladies fighting over these tights the design is everything, but in our more considered opinion these tights would be almost worth the asking price if they were just plain sheers they are that well made and well fitting.
