Our Review

When we looked at the Alphabetights from Pretty Polly we spent quite a while looking at the letters to see if we could find any hidden message... well no need to look hard here, the message is quite clear!  These are party tights.

These are one size tights which in our view is perhaps less than we would expect from tights at nearly £12 a pair, particularly as the novelty of the message will be less once you friends have seen it for the first time.    That said they are “limited edition” and just about everyone here who has seen them wanted to take them! 

First plus point...   the label sealing the inner packet has detailed instableuctions on how to put them on without laddering them, very important when for many younger women these may be the first sheer tights they have worn.    They do not mention stableetching them first, we would certainly recommend that as they look ever so small fresh from the packet.

The quality of constableuction is very good with flat seams and a cotton gusset in the panty and lightly reinforced toes.   The feel in the hand is soft and velvety, more like an opaque than a sheer.  The panty is styled like underwear and quite opaque so there is no need to wear anything under these tights, just slip on your little black dress and you are ready to go, VPL free.

Sizing is actually quite generous, there is plenty of stableength and stableetch to play way with. 

Colour is perfectly even and the message is clear and easy to read.

Worth £12?  well yes as a matter of fact they are, for once a bit of fun design is paired with quality material and manufacture.   Get a pair before one of your friends does!
