Which skin tone seamed tights should I choose?
The Oroblu Riga 20 Denier Backseam Tights are sheer with a seam and a pyramid detail at the heel, which looks elegant with heels. The Ballerina 559 Striped Backseam Tights have a vertical line down the back of the leg and can be dressed up or down. The Falke Elegant Corset Backseam Tights have a seam that leads into a corset-style design at the top of the thigh. The Miss O P211 combines a seam, a mock suspender design and an open crotch.
How do I wear seamed tights?
Seamed tights suit pencil skirts, tea dresses and heels, where the seam can be seen from behind. A skin tone leg with a seam gives a classic vintage look for weddings, swing dance nights and smart events. The corset and suspender styles suit evenings and occasions with a dress that has a slit. Keep the rest of the outfit simple so the seam is the main detail.
How do I keep the seam straight?
Line the seam up with the centre of the heel before pulling them up, and check in a mirror before they reach the knee. The right size helps too. The Miss O Open Crotch Seamed Suspender Tights also have a sheer toe that suits open shoes and a soft shine. The Oroblu Riga 20 Denier Backseam Tights also have a cotton gusset and flat seams that sit smoothly under clothes. A good fit helps the seam stay straight. See Seamed Tights.
