Coloured tights will always be one of those fashion trends that tends to raise an eyebrow, you either love them or you really don’t. While most of us don’t stray too far from black opaques, many designers, including Louis Vuitton and Valentino, put them on the catwalk this season.
Now even Kendall Jenner, the woman who looks good in literally everything, was spotted wearing oxblood tights with a matching Bottega Veneta mini dress from the same collection. Does this cement the comeback for coloured tights or is it the tonal dressing that makes Kendall’s look work? Either way, this is your guide to wearing coloured tights…
Match Your Tights with Your Dress
This is a trend we have seen emerging a lot in the past few years, largely thanks to the collections of Valentino and Versace. Wearing tights in the same or similar tone to your dress is a bold move, but one that definitely pays off. As seen on many fashion-forward celebs such as Gigi Hadid, Ariana Grande and Jenna Ortega. It is certainly a great way to brighten up a dreary winter’s day!

SJP is another fan of bright-and-bold hosiery, showing that perhaps the best way to pull off turquoise tights is to keep the rest of the ensemble muted.
