Are Footless Tights A Fashion Item Or A Necessity?

This article aims to demonstrate and discuss whether or not footless hosiery is considered

to be an everyday staple wardrobe piece or a fashion accessory. By paying particular attention to how and when footless tights are worn, a conclusion shall be reached on footless tights status in the fashion world.

Many people consider tights to be a classic garment only to be worn by the older lady. They are often used as a means of covering up the legs or viewed as a winter essential. Over the years high street collaborations have become more and more popular after many retailers have followed the pathway set by H&M with their many designer collaborations. The hosiery world is no stranger to this with its recent collaborations with Mark Fast for Jonathan Aston and Henry Holland for pretty Polly. These collections have moved hosiery into the fashion sector rather than simply everyday essentials. Footless tights are also often used a means to cover up. They are often worn under denim shorts and dresses and with shoes. They differ from regular tights in the fact they allow you to wear whatever footwear you wish without the feet being covered.

Hosiery may have developed a reputation for itself over the years as a boring accessory. With hosiery being available to buy in many supermarkets today, many people will simply pick it up on their weekly food shop rather than going on an actual clothes and fashion shop. However, the hosiery available in supermarkets today is not always of the highest quality. There are many specialist hosiery retailers out there who provide an array of different brands with the highest quality available. Throw away hosiery is also a frequent matter. With tights laddering easily, many people do not want to fork out on the top brands. Footless tights differ in a sense to regular tights. They often come in higher deniers and can almost offer a legging like appearance. For this reason, they are often preferred by many to lower denier tights.

With designers making their debut into the hosiery world, it is easy to see that footless tights are not simply an everyday essential. They are now available in an array of prints, patterns and colours. They are also available in many lengths, three quarter length footless tights were a popular theme on this years London fashion week catwalks.

Designers such as Louise Gray and Betsey Johnson showcased some fantastic hosiery this year portraying that fashion hosiery is here to stay.

Allowing you to wear your favourite peep toe shoes or even your summer gladiator sandals, footless hosiery is one of the most popular styles.

Conclusively, it is clear to see that the days of hosiery being simply an essential are over. Footless tights in particular are becoming more and more popular be it for everyday wear or for a glamorous night out. With new designs being created every day, it will be interesting to see what is next for the hosiery world.
