Suzanne Jackson fully embraced tights season while celebrating the launch of her gifting suite at Swords Pavilions Shopping Centre.

The beauty guru chose a trendy, fashion-forward outfit in burgundy, the color of the season, for the glamorous event.

Suzanne opted for an oversized twist on the classic autumn/winter staple, the biker jacket, in a stunning wine shade.

She styled the statement jacket with a sleek black polo knit mini dress, but the highlight was her bold burgundy tights. She completed the look with chic pointy-toe shoes.

Suzanne hasn’t shared where she found her statement outfit, but her burgundy tights and jacket combo is a trending look online. Similar stylish jackets are widely available on the high street.

 

Tights are a must-have when fall arrives. Not only do they keep your legs warm, but they also add a touch of personal style. During a season full of layers and heavy clothing, tights are an easy way to stand out.

Who better to show the versatility of tights than fashion chameleon Dua Lipa? In Instagram photos, the “Training Season” singer took it up a level by pairing a bold, sultry lace tights with a unique LBD.

She chose black floral lace tights to add dimension and texture to her monochromatic outfit. On top, she wore a bodycon black minidress with ruched details on the bust and billowing long sleeves. To complete the look, she opted for black knee-high leather boots with a square toe and block heel.

Lipa’s accessory choice was also black—a heart-shaped black leather bag decorated with silver circular studs.

 Dua Lipa has always centered her outfits around a standout piece. In a 2017 interview with Harper’s Bazaar, she shared, “I like having one piece that makes a whole outfit, while everything else stays simple. Like right now, it’s this blazer because it’s so weird. It’s from DKNY. Dressing up has always been my thing. I love when outfits look effortlessly thrown together, and sometimes, those quick choices turn out the best. The ’90s have always inspired me, so I enjoy wearing baggy trousers, blazers with slip dresses, thigh-high boots, leather jackets, and mixing all those elements.”

Is there anything that Dua Lipa can’t master?

Obviously the answer is no.

Dua Lipa, spotted taking a break from performing for massive crowds, attended a meet and greet at the iconic Tower Records Shibuya.

As expected, Dua’s off-duty (yet still on-duty) outfit was straight out of a dream. She wore a vibrant lemon meringue-toned knitted cardigan paired with micro mini leather knickers, sheer black tights, and knee-high boots. With this look, the pop star secured her place at the top of the cool-girl fashion scene.

For accessories, the *Levitating* singer paid attention to every detail. One wrist was adorned with dozens of colorful beaded bracelets, while her other hand showcased a stack of silver rings. To carry her essentials, Dua chose a ruby red mini shoulder bag, making the perfect statement piece.

The 29-year-old It-Brit opted for her signature glam look for the event. She lined her eyes with a sharp black liquid liner for a cat-eye effect and highlighted her lips with a matte brown shade. Dua looked radiant.

For her hair, she styled her freshly dyed brunette locks into a sleek, straight middle part.

Dua Lipa always knows how to keep things interesting.

The “Training Season” singer recently finished her visit to the Philippines, where she transformed Bocaue’s Philippine Arena into a disco-pop party for her Radical Optimism Tour. After the concert, Lipa shared one of her well-known photo dumps on Instagram, showcasing two contrasting party outfits she wore in the Southeast Asian country.

The more eye-catching of the two outfits was a combination of a baseball jersey and see-through tights. The jersey was a bright blue-and-red button-down with “Pilipinas” (the Spanish word for the Philippines) written in white, along with a small yellow sun on one side. You can find a similar jersey here.

Lipa skipped pants altogether for the sporty party look, choosing black fishnet tights instead. Taking a style cue from Rihanna, she added sparkle with large white diamond studs and a chunky chain necklace decorated with tiny diamonds.

Once again proving she is a fashion chameleon, Lipa’s other party look featured a black tweed Chanel set with a boxy cardigan top and matching hot shorts. Both pieces had embroidered white trim and were covered in sparkles. Lipa styled this performance outfit with two belts: a thick, glossy black belt and a classic silver chain belt from the French fashion house. She completed the ensemble with the same fishnet tights she paired with her sports jersey, plus black knee-high leather boots adorned with silver chains.

Demi Lovato stepped out in a bold outfit with her fiancé, Jordan Lutes. The beloved singer, who recently discussed her journey as a child star in her Hulu documentary, is kicking off November by giving fans a glimpse into her personal life. She shared that her relationship is stronger than ever.

Recently, the musician shared several photos showcasing her life, including her stylish outfits. Demi embraced the latest trends, wearing a chic black corset paired with lace fishnet tights. She completed the look with black pointed-toe heels and minimal jewelry.

Demi accessorized with small hoop earrings and styled her hair in a sleek bun. She rocked bold makeup, featuring dark lips and eyeshadow. The singer proudly showcased her tattoo collection while posing alongside her fiancé. He wore wide-leg trousers, a black t-shirt, a gray jacket, and black loafers.

“Well hello November,” Demi wrote, posting a photo from their romantic date that evening. The couple shared a kiss at a restaurant while snapping a selfie. Demi also revealed another fall look, wearing black combat boots, black tights, and an oversized Balenciaga t-shirt. She completed the outfit with dark sunglasses and bold statement jewelry.

Demi continues to rock stunning edgy looks, especially since embracing a new style for her latest music era. In October, she attended the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame celebration at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland, Ohio. She wore a black leather trench coat, paired with black tights and small hoop earrings.

The singer stayed true to her signature style at the 2024 Glamour Women of the Year Awards, wearing a stunning black corseted gown. Demi chose the perfect Vivienne Westwood design for the evening, featuring a glittery neckline and a draped cowl skirt.

Listen closely, and you can almost hear fashion lovers eagerly clicking their pointed-toe pumps. After all, the colder season signals the start of tights season.

With so many options available—sheer colors, thick fuzzy styles, and sleek matte—it can be tough to choose the right one.

Fear not! Style icon Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is here to rescue us, showing us how to style fishnets for autumn.

On Thursday, Rose Inc founder Rosie Huntington-Whiteley shared an effortless style lesson on Instagram. She posted a series of images of herself in CEO mode, pairing a chic button-up little black dress with bold fishnet stockings.

Captioning the post “Office Day,” Rosie nailed the corporate-chic look. She elevated the striking ensemble with patent black pointed-toe pumps and oversized aviator glasses.

Rosie’s timeless mini dress and ‘Web Tights’ are from her recent RTW collaboration with NYC brand Wardrobe NYC. The mini, crafted from 100% wool, is perfect for cozy season, featuring waist-shaping tailoring, double-breasted buttons, and sharp padded shoulders. The tights, made from 68% Merino wool, are machine washable for easy care.

To complete the office-appropriate look, Rosie styled her long blonde hair into a sleek, slicked-back ballerina bun and added a touch of brown matte lipstick.

Fishnet tights have been dubbed a top 2024 fashion trend, favored by stars like Maya Jama and Nicola Peltz-Beckham. H! Fashion Editor Natalie Salmon describes them as “the cool-girl must-have accessory of this season.”

Kristina Falke, International PR Director of renowned hosiery brand Falke, previously told H! Fashion, “Put on the tights first, then choose your outfit. But with a black dress, anything goes.” It’s a styling tip Rosie Huntington-Whiteley clearly agrees with.

From the highest seats at the *Short n’ Sweet* tour, Sabrina Carpenter’s legs gleam as if coated in Krispy Kreme glaze. It’s hard to take your eyes off them.

If you saw her opening set for *Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour*, her Coachella show, or her 2024 VMAs performance, you noticed the same thing: her legs glistened with every outfit change and sassy hip pop.

In the past year and a half, the 25-year-old “Espresso” singer has followed Swift’s stage style by wearing double-layered nude pantyhose. This practical and flattering fashion trick has been popular with stars like Beyoncé and Demi Lovato.

These pop icons don’t need to coat their legs in moisturizer or liquid shimmer; the sheer pantyhose provide an instant glossy effect with no hassle. Now, this performer-approved trend is reaching everyday women, as skin-toned pantyhose make a strong comeback.

Allen E. Gant invented pantyhose in 1959 to help his pregnant wife, who struggled with constantly pulling up her stockings. He aimed to create a garment that extended from the waist to the toes, removing the need for garters completely.

In the 1960s, as Mary Quant popularized the miniskirt, tights helped make the style more “appropriate” for everyday wear. Even with rising hemlines, it wasn’t considered acceptable for women to show their stockings and lace garters. Pantyhose provided a modest solution under the thigh-skimming fashion.

Over the next decade, nude tights became an office staple, mandated by most employers’ dress codes. Bare legs were not allowed, and women had to wear pantyhose if their skirts or dresses were mid-calf-length or shorter. However, by the 1990s, as workwear standards evolved, pantyhose were considered outdated and unfashionable.

Once abandoned in professional settings, nude nylons shifted from polite undergarments to fun, costume pieces. Unless you were a ballerina, figure skater, aspiring Broadway dancer, or even Taylor Swift, wearing skin-tone pantyhose seemed unusual.

In 2024, the fashion scene has shifted again, creating a noticeable generational divide. To millennial non-A-listers, nude tights are still seen as old-fashioned underwear, a throwback to what older generations wore. As one X/Twitter user put it, they’re forever linked to Nora Batty from *Last of the Summer Wine*. But for Gen Z, nude tights are now a sexy staple—an ideal alternative to self-tanner and, according to one pantyhose fan on social media, “very hot.”

Millennials and Gen X who resist the trend often do so because they can’t shake the conservative values passed down from their mothers and grandmothers. One Gen X woman, for instance, shared online that she only wears skin-toned tights because of her family’s influence. “I just can’t bring myself to go bare-legged if I’m wearing a skirt,” she admitted. “If it’s a long summer skirt, fine, but if it’s a tailored skirt with a blazer or jacket, I have to wear pantyhose. I can’t not. I hear my mother’s and grandmother’s voices in my head.”

Some women took to Reddit to share their trauma of being forced to wear flesh-toned “granny panties” in their youth. “My first job out of college required pantyhose with skirts and even with sandals – this was in 2000, and one of the reasons I left after 18 months,” one user shared. “Nope, nope, nope! I always hated them. I’m pale and could never find a nude that matched. I’ve worn black pantyhose, fishnets, tights—anything like that—but nude hose? Never again,” another agreed.

This frustration was echoed by many online, with users pointing out that most companies offer a limited range of skin-toned pantyhose. “The skin tone on my legs DOES NOT match my arms,” one frustrated woman vented on Reddit. Another self-identified “elder millennial” admitted, “I haven’t worn ‘nude’ stockings or tights since I was a kid. I often wear patterned or fashion tights (both sheer and opaque) in various colors as an outfit accent, but never in my skin tone.”

Both high-fashion and affordable brands have continued to promote flesh-colored tights, introducing new offerings and expanding skin tone options. Notable names like the drugstore staple L’eggs are leading the way with more inclusive choices.

The Row, Miu Miu, and Maison Margiela have all championed pantyhose, pushing for their chic revival in recent runway collections—especially in the last two years as the no-pants trend gained traction. For her Fall 2023 ready-to-wear collection, Miuccia Prada made a bold statement: not only can pants be optional, but flaunting what’s underneath is now in vogue.

Gen Z stars like Addison Rae and Sydney Sweeney followed the designers’ lead, ditching pants and pushing tights into the fashion spotlight. But even millennial icons are joining in—Kristen Stewart and Jodie Turner-Smith have both been spotted wearing tiny underwear paired with nude hosiery. While the no-pants look is usually seen with colored or sheer black tights, Stewart opted for skin-toned pantyhose. In March 2024, the *Twilight* star was seen strutting the streets of New York City in light tights and cable-knit underwear.

Sure, the “pants-less” look may be a fashion step too far for anyone but celebrities. But there’s no denying that the trend—along with Carpenter-mania—has brought nude tights back into the style spotlight. Sorry, millennials—it seems Nora Batty was ahead of her time.

 

 

Lucy Liu showed off her legs in sheer tights at a London screening of her upcoming movie, *Red One*. She turned heads and created a buzz with her stunning appearance.

The action comedy features Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson as the North Pole’s security chief. He faces a major crisis when Santa Claus is kidnapped.

Lucy, 55, plays Zoe Harlow, the North Pole’s spy chief. She is also involved in the mission to find Santa.

For her recent public appearance, the *Kill Bill* star showed off her figure in a sleek black outfit, perfectly highlighting her toned legs.

Lucy wore a stylish tuxedo jacket over a shimmery black top and matching shorts, accentuating her slender figure.

Her look featured fishnets over her décolletage and a pair of high black stilettos, enhancing her leggy silhouette.

With bold makeup, including crimson lipstick, Lucy sharpened her screen siren look. She wore her dark hair pulled back to highlight a pair of sparkling earrings.

As she walked the red carpet, Lucy took a moment to pose with JK Simmons, who plays Santa Claus.

Let’s celebrate Lily Collins, the ever-giving actress who continues to impress.

On her hit Netflix show, Lily Collins’ wardrobe is full of colorful, eccentric pieces. In real life, however, her personal style is much more understated.

On Wednesday evening, American actress Lily Collins attended the press night after-party for *Barcelona* in London, accompanied by her husband, Charlie McDowell. At The Crypt in St Martin-in-the-Fields, the Los Angeles native wowed in a timeless outfit: a black knitted dress with a high neckline, long sleeves, a longline silhouette, and a thigh-high split.

She completed the cozy look with sheer black tights and point-toe heels, creating an effortlessly elegant style.

Lily wore her short, dark hair loose in a sleek, straight bob with a side part. Her look was enhanced by vampy makeup, featuring a high-contrast mix of dark bronzer, bold brows, and a porcelain complexion.

Still, Lily couldn’t resist reminiscing about her time on the Parisian set of the popular Netflix series. Earlier this week, she shared a photo in a striking red leather catsuit, along with a playful caption teasing fans about the upcoming season: “Already seeing some amazing @emilyinparis Halloween costumes, so here is some more season four inspo…”
