Allana

What does Allana make?

Tights are the core of the range. They run from 20 and 40 denier sheer to waist styles to 70 and 100 denier opaques, with heart, polka dot, seamed, lace, fishnet and rhinestone designs. Allana also makes leggings, including ribbed, flared, leopard print, leather-look, vinyl and fleece-lined pairs. For outfits, there are Tailored Flared Trousers, Leopard Print Wide Leg Trousers and Sheer Floral Lace Trousers. The High Waisted Shapewear Safety Shorts and Black Lace Trim Satin Shorts work under dresses.

How do Allana sizes work?

Allana sizing depends on the product. Some tights come in standard sizes, while the 20 and 40 denier styles also have dedicated plus size versions. Several trousers and leggings are one size. The Leopard Print Wide Leg Trousers, for example, are listed as one size for UK dress sizes 8 to 16. The size guide on each product page gives the measurements for that style. For other brands in larger sizes, see Plus Size Tights. If you are between sizes, the larger size is usually more comfortable at the waist.

What are safety shorts for?

Safety shorts are worn under skirts and dresses to stop thighs rubbing and to give extra cover. The Allana High Waisted Shapewear Safety Shorts also smooth the tummy, so they double as light shapewear. The Black Lace Trim Satin Shorts have a satin finish with a lace edge, so they look neat if they show. Both sit high on the waist, so they stay in place under fitted dresses. The High Waisted Capri Leggings are another option if you want more leg coverage for active days. For other styles, see Shapewear.
