A perfect partner for that body skimming dress.

Sheer to waist tights have a consistent thickness and appearance all the way from the toes up to the waist. A great option to wear with shorter skirts and dresses, or lighter coloured garments.
A great way to achieve that perfect leg look, without restricting your upper thighs and brief area. Stay ups usually come up to around mid-thigh, with a self-supporting band on the top of the leg. A silicone strip or hyper-allergenic elastic
ensures these stay up whilst they are worn.
Pantyhose or knee highs that provide therapeutic support by utilising technology to compress the legs, from bottom to top. These pantyhose can range from light through to firm compression. A great choice for those who spend long periods of
time on their feet, or just want a little bit of extra support for tired or achy legs.
