The 5 Most Exciting Types of Nylon Tights – and How to Style Them
Nylon tights are more than a basic – they're a statement. Whether elegant, rebellious, or seductive: with the right pair, you can elevate your look in no time. In this guide, we'll show you the five most exciting styles and give you concrete styling tips – each with a link to the corresponding category in the shop.
1) Patterned Tights – Add Playful Accents
Polka dots, hearts, diamonds, or floral ornaments: patterned tights bring movement to any look. They work solo as an eye-catcher or in a tone-on-tone outfit for a subtler finish.
- Styling Tip: Mini skirt or A-line dress + simple pumps or ankle boots – this puts the pattern in focus.
- Who is it for? You love fashion with a wink and want to make outfits more exciting quickly.
- Occasion: Everyday, date, dinner – from playfully elegant to trendy street style.
2) Fishnet Tights – The Modern Statement Classic
Hardly any style is as iconic as the net look. fishnet tights range from fine tulle to striking, large meshes – making them more versatile than their reputation suggests.
- Styling Tip: Under ripped jeans or with an oversized shirt and mini skirt. For more elegance: add a blazer.
- Who is it for? You want to exude confidence and like strong contrasts.
- Occasion: Party, club, festival – but also combinable with understated pieces for everyday wear.
3) Open-Knit Tights – Seductive with Function
Open-knit tights combine seductive design with practical advantages (e.g., comfortable to wear under tight outfits). They look sensual yet remain discreet under clothing.
- Styling Tip: Figure-hugging dresses or skirts; smooth surfaces like satin or jersey emphasize the silhouette.
- Who is it for? You're looking for a sexy look with added comfort.
- Occasion: Date night, special occasions – or as a discreet, elegant layer underneath.
4) Tights with Garter Belt Look – The Garter Look Made Easy
Tights with garter belt look deliver the appearance of garter belts – just easier to wear. Ideal if you want the iconic look but prioritize everyday wearability.
- Styling Tip: Elegant dress, pencil skirt, or satin dress + high heels – the focus is on the legs.
- Who is it for? You love retro vibes and want both comfort and a secure fit.
- Occasion: Dinner, events, elegant evenings.
5) Sexy Tights – The Versatile All-Rounder
The category sexy tights encompasses sensual designs: shiny nylon finishes, seam details, cut-outs, lace, or effect yarns. Here you'll find styles for almost every occasion.
- Styling Tip: For subtly sexy: matte nylon with a back seam. For more drama: glossy finish, cut-outs, or patterns.
- Who is it for? You want to stay flexible and vary from elegant to daring depending on your mood.
- Occasion: All-rounder – from after-work drinks to a special night.
