Click here to view these tights in more detail. The last time I looked, the brand no longer sell the same non-slip tights pictured right.
I have not seen the bottom of the Wolford non-slip tights so I cannot confirm the shape of the gel pad. Kate fans know that the Duchess and her family regularly shop at the Bicester Village outlet in Oxfordshire. We know for a fact that Kate visited Bicester in It is very possible she stocked up on non-slip tights. Have you tried either of the above brands of tights?
Do you have another brand you love? Let me know in the comments section below. Oh no! When I was younger I would have welcomed the no-hose lifestyle. However, as one ages and the legs are no longer picture perfect, a pair of sheer hose covers a multitude of flaws. One can always tell when someoone is wearing hose because their legs almost always look better. So true!!! I am naturally very pale and a little overweight.
Carly I agree with you. I love slightly tanned hose as well. I always go for DIM nylons, made in France. Wolford is WAY overpriced and no better quality than any other brand. When I wear them I get many compliments, even from my daughter who thinks tights are awful.
You girls in the UK are lucky to have many great choices, the tights here are not nice at all. Also you have Kate Middelton and we have Kim Kartrashian. An experienced opinion. They are by far the softest, smoothest and sheerest hosiery made.
They are not for everyday wear. But for that special event or evening. Very nice gloss to them. I have tried the top end hosiery. Just try the Platino brand. You will be hooked and never go back. No waist band. But the mill that was producing them is gone. And who knows when they can find another. The Cecilia De Rrafael is also very wonderful. James's Palace.
Caitlin McBride Twitter Email. Kate Middleton, international style icon and purveyor of nude tights and high heels, has picked up a noteworthy trick or two during her 17 years in the spotlight. B ritain's Duchess of Cambridge is - as all female members of the royal family are - required to wear flesh coloured tights for public appearances, a rule set forth by Queen Elizabeth.
But every woman knows the uncertainty that comes with adding an extra layer of xxx to your footwear, taking the risk of your foot flopping out of your five-inch heels with every step. But Kate has the solution, or, at least she buys the product that does. The 'Barely There Non-Slip Tights' have been treated with a non-slip finish so they remain in place around your stomach, as well as open toe for summer, and the trademark non-sip detail at the foot.
Genius is overused when referring to a style hack, but this time, it must be just the right fit. Meghan Markle'ss half-brother thinks she's "changed" since joining the royal family. It certainly gives Kate a streamlined look, especially when she knows she's going to be constantly photographed. And when she's not wearing nude in the warmer months, she usually opts for a thick black pair of tights in the winter so she can keep wearing dresses year-round, even as the weather gets cold.
Every once in a while, Kate does switch things up, though. She's been seen wearing navy tights, brown tights, and even patterned tights. And, she often reaches for a pair with built-in sticky pads that help grip her favorite heels.
Harper's Bazaar reported that one of Kate's go-to brands of pantyhose are from department store John Lewis. Kate dressed up for her college graduation from St. Andrews University.
In addition to her sheer black stockings, she opted for a black miniskirt, white button down, and black heels. She also paired the all-black look with a brown bag, which is usually a fashion don't. But it was , and she's still kind of rocking it, so we'll let it pass.
These days, Kate usually avoids patterned tights, instead opting for nude or black. But back before she was a princess , she wore whatever she wanted. These argyle-printed tights are such a fun pop of pattern next to her black coat and camel colored heels. She should really break out the cool stockings more, it makes for a fun contrast to a more demure look.
For a roller disco night, Kate paired sheer nude tights with neon yellow shorts and neon pink socks. She was only about eight when the '80s ended, but something tells us that she would have fit right in even as an '80s teen. She has the style down pat. And it was a good move for her to go with nude tights so as not to distract from the rest of her look. The hemline on this dress is a lot shorter than today's Kate Middleton would wear.
But even back in , Kate was fond of pairing a tight with a dress for a night out. This photo was snapped just a few months after she married Prince William and was still figuring out her royal style. These black stockings are more sheer, but they're very consistent with her current style.
She loves a black tight. Both Kate and her mother-in-law Camilla Parker Bowles dressed similarly for this event. They have a similar white color scheme for their dresses although the Duchess of Cornwall did add some pops of light pink , and they both wore nude pantyhose and nude heels.
This was early on in Kate's time as duchess, so maybe she was taking fashion cues from those who had been doing it a lot longer. Kate's black turtleneck, black opaque tights, and black heels make her burgundy suit stand out that much more.
In this outfit, Kate's using her tights to create a seamless backdrop against which her more interesting pieces can pop. Sometimes she lets the tights be the star of the look, and sometimes she lets them be a supporting act. That's how well she knows how to rock them. Like she did with her all-black look, Kate created a seamless line by pairing nude pantyhose with nude shoes. As a result, her legs and feet kind of blend away and people are left to focus on her pretty robin's egg blue coatdress and hat.
If she were wearing black tights, her legs would be too similar to Prince William' s next to her, so changing things up and going for a tan tight was a good idea.
Color is not always Kate's thing, so this bright purple dress came a little out of left field. But she kept things classy and more muted on the accessories front to not overpower the eye.
That's why she opted for a plain black purse, black tights, and black heels to offset the more powerful pop of purple in the gown. We know she has a stylist who is probably helping her make some of these decisions, but Kate also seems to just know when and how to work a tight. A lot of times, Kate goes for a more opaque black tight, perhaps to keep her legs extra warm in the winter.
But for the Christmas mass celebration, she went with sheer brown tights. Perhaps because her red coat is so long, she didn't want to make her legs look shorter with a thick wall of color in black tights. With the stockings barely there, we're left to focus on her gorgeous red ensemble with matching velvet gloves, hat, and shoes. Duchess Kate does love to match items of her wardrobe. She even matches her daughter Charlotte sometimes. But this is just so much matching. Kate went with a navy pair of tights for this look, shaking herself out of her usual black stockings rut.
But she paired the navy tights with a navy coat dress, navy shoes, navy gloves, a navy purse, and a navy hat. And then Prince William stood next to her in a navy suit.
