Nylon tights have become such an indispensable part of a woman's wardrobe that many women cannot do without them even in the hot season. Moreover, in offices the dress code requires wearing them both in winter and summer.
The advantages of using tights are obvious: they mask defects in the skin of the legs, protect the feet and heels from drying out and cracking, and the dark color makes them look slim.
IMPORTANT! To ensure that staying in tights in the heat is not uncomfortable, you need to wear the thinnest nylons.
Density of thin tights
The most important characteristic of tights is their density, measured in denies.
Thin summer tights are available in several options:
- super-light, having a density of 6–8 den;
- light, the density coefficient of which is 10–15 denier;
- normal, with an indicator of 20 days.
What you need to know about the density of tights
There are many misconceptions based on which girls, when choosing caprons, make a mistake and purchase the wrong thing.
Here are some main myths:
- “The more elastane added to tights, the tighter they are.” The density indicator does not at all depend on the amount of added elastane; it indicates the weight of the thread from which the product is made, nine kilometers long. It follows from this that the thicker the thread, the denser the thing will be.
- “The higher the density, the greater the lifting effect your tights will have.” This statement is also incorrect; the tightening property directly depends on how much elastane is contained in the material.
- “High-density models are completely opaque.” This statement is incorrect, even with a 70 denier rating, tights can be completely transparent.
The thinnest tights (characteristics)
Superlight tights with a rating of 6–8 denier are incredibly thin and very fragile.
ATTENTION! The thinnest caprons can be called a disposable item that must be worn very carefully. Even a slight tightening can ruin the entire appearance.
Lightweight, with a density of 10–15 denier, unlike the previous version, they have more wear-resistant and durable parameters. They are used in a wider range.
The 20 denier option, most often used by women, is durable. Its versatility and wide variety of models allow ladies to choose them for both festive attire and everyday wear.
When to wear thin tights
The 6-8 count category can be worn on a summer evening or used as an addition to a formal dress. Such caprons are almost invisible on women's legs. They will make you feel much more confident and attractive, and will also give you a sophisticated look.
An option characterized by an indicator of 10–15 units will wonderfully complement the appearance of a business woman. After all, according to the unspoken office dress code, employees should not appear at their workplace with bare legs. Such caprons can be used when attending a fun party or worn when going to business negotiations.
Tights with a density of 20 units are a universal option. They can be paired with any type and style of clothing, worn with any shoes and for a variety of events.
