Summer is finally here! Now is the time when we want to feel light, breezy, and carefree. So start shedding off the heavy layers of winter clothing and finally expose some skin! This means switching your Fall fashion necessity, the opaque tight, for lighter, more weather appropriate hosiery or legwear styles.
If you are looking for leg coverage that masks your leg's little "imperfections," but still is light and breathable enough to feel like you are wearing nothing at all, try any one of our Silk Reflections® Transparent Sheer™ Collection. The 0A663 Transparent Sheer™ Control Top, 0A662 Transparent™ Sheer "Sheer to Waist", and 0A664 Transparent Sheer™ Thigh High are hosiery silhouettes all made with spandex ultra sheer yarns that allows it to fit like a second skin and so light- that it's virtually invisible. The yarns are designed to be the perfect match to any skin tone, ultimately giving legs a pulled together polished look that is better than bare.
Open toe shoes are all the rage in summertime. Try our Silk Reflections® 0A085 Toeless Control Top or 0C079 Toeless Knee High styles. They are perfect for allowing your toes to be exposed, just in time to show off your summer pedicure, while still having great sheer coverage on your legs. Body Enhancers® 0E061 Anti-Cellulite Mid-Thigh or 0E059 Waistcincher Mid-Thigh shapers are perfect to shape and smooth your body giving you a sleek look under skirts and dresses and allow you to show off those tanned legs.
Leisure activities and sports, such as golf and tennis, with hints of nautical allusions inspire this Summer's fashion styling, combining casual with a touch of luxury. Knee highs are the quintessential preppy accessory that will automatically give you that modern, redefined "country club" look. The Hanes® Fashion 0A708 Sheer Rib Knee High is a sheer pinstripe pattern perfect for summer. Also, the Hanes® Fashion 0A709 Sheer Diamond Knee High has an intricate menswear inspired diamond pattern. The Hanes® Fashion 0A712 Delicate Argyle Control Top is a classic tight with a soft argyle print pattern with a diamond overlay, a subtle blend of both prints and pattern, with a feminine dot accent color in ivory or blush. For preppy, menswear inspired looks the Hanes® Fashion 0A714 Patterned Stripe Control Top, is this season's version of a pinstripe which embraces the playfulness of the season.
Equally important this summer is pretty, feminine styling. Eyelet, crochet and lace patterns for example. To achieve the look of this particularly girly trend, try our Hanes® Fashion 0A713 Gathered Net Pantyhose. This light fishnet is a modern take on the intricately feminine crochet look and feel with small geographic patterns in a net tight silhouette. Floral patterning is also important. For easy styling, wear a pair of our Hanes® Fashion 0A715 Floral Gauze Control Top, a mainstay floral pattern newly interpreted for the season in blush and black in a control top silhouette. For more classic, lacy feminine styles, try our Silk Reflections® 0G092 French Lace Panty Control Top Pantyhose, a beautiful French cut lace panty combined with a silky sheer leg, or Silk Reflections® 0A444 Lace Top Thighs, for a feminine and luxurious look. These styles are the perfect picks for all those upcoming seasonal special occasions, such as prom or summer weddings, where every woman wants to feel elegant and look beautiful, from head to toe.
Whatever looks you choose to wear throughout these sunny summer days, we encourage you to mix it up and make each style your own. After all, that is what this carefree summer season is all about!
