Tights for every occasion: everyday, office, party & special moments
Tights are true all-rounders: they protect, shape, enhance outfits – and they can appear subtle, playful, or seductive. The choice of the right tights depends on the occasion. Whether for everyday wear, a business meeting, a party, or intimate moments – here you'll find out which models are best suited and how to combine them.
Tights for Everyday – Comfort & Versatility
For everyday wear, comfort and flexibility are paramount. Lightweight materials, breathable structures, and denier strengths between 20 and 40 ensure you feel completely comfortable. Particularly popular are:
- Classic, semi-opaque tights(20–30 DEN) for a uniform look.
- Subtle patterns, like small dots or diamonds, if you love variety.
- Shapewear tights, which offer comfort as well as a smooth silhouette.
Tip: For everyday wear, it's worth opting for shapewear tights as they smooth the stomach and provide extra confidence – perfect for jeans, knit dresses, or casual outfits.
Tights for the Office – Professional & Elegant
In a professional setting, a confident, serious look is key. Tights for the office should be subtle, elegant, and suitable for everyday wear. Recommended are:
- Opaque models from 40 DEN in black, anthracite, or navy – ideal for autumn/winter.
- Sheer tights(15–20 DEN) in nude or black – perfect with blazers and suits.
- High-waist shapewear – shapes the stomach & waist, but remains invisible under pencil skirts.
Tip: With women's tights in a subtle nude shade, your business look will be both professional and feminine.
Tights for Parties – Stand Out & Shine
When things get glamorous, your tights can also make a statement. Here, standing out is encouraged! Popular choices include:
- Fishnet tights – from fine micro-net to coarse fishnet for an edgy style.
- Patterned tights – dots, diamonds, animal prints, or floral designs as eye-catchers.
- Glitter tights – with shiny threads or rhinestones for festive outfits.
Tip: Fishnet tights, in particular, are versatile – pair them with a mini skirt, wear them under ripped jeans, or use them as a highlight for clubbing & festivals. Browse our selection of fishnet tights.
Tights for Special Moments – Seductive & Daring
There are tights specifically designed for intimate or extraordinary occasions. They not only showcase your legs and silhouette but also create surprise effects. These include:
- Lace tights – romantic, feminine, and perfect for date nights.
- Garter tights – lingerie effect with the comfort of tights.
- Open-crotch tights – tights with an open crotch that combine comfort with sensuality.
