Which Gipsy seamed tights should I choose?
The Gipsy Seamed Tights are 10 denier with a sheer toe and a sheer panty, so they look like seamed stockings from top to toe. The seam runs up the back of the leg for a classic vintage line. The French Heel Contrast Seamed Tights have a contrast seam and a shaped French heel, which stands out more and suits 1940s and 1950s inspired outfits. Both give the look of seamed stockings without a suspender belt.
How do I wear seamed tights?
Seamed tights suit pencil skirts, tea dresses and heels. A black seam on a skin tone leg is the classic contrast look, while a matching seam is more subtle. They also suit vintage events, dance nights and weddings with a retro theme. Red lipstick and a curled hairstyle complete the look. The Gipsy Seamed Tights also have a sheer toe that suits open shoes.
How do I keep the seam straight?
Put seamed tights on slowly, one leg at a time. Line the seam up with the centre of the heel before pulling up, and check it in a mirror before the tights reach the knee. It is much harder to straighten a seam once the tights are fully on. The right size helps, as tights that are too big are more likely to twist.
