Watch VideoGirlAry’s full review of the Calzedonia Black Transparent Design Tights. In this video she unboxes the tights and tries them on in two different outfits, giving a close look at how the pattern and coverage work in practice.
The defining feature of these tights is their mixed-opacity construction: certain panels are noticeably sheer and transparent while others are much denser and fuller in coverage. VideoGirlAry points this out immediately when handling them out of the box, noting the contrast between the lighter and heavier sections of the knit.
Once on, she observes that the tights are very dark and opaque in the areas where coverage is full, to the point that no skin is visible underneath. She admits she had expected the denser sections to be a little lighter in tone, but they turned out darker than anticipated. The foot area also provides substantial coverage, and she points out the toe seam clearly for viewers.
Here is a summary of the key observations from the review:
- Opacity: mixed, with clearly sheer zones and clearly opaque zones across the leg
- Colour: black, darker overall than expected
- Foot coverage: full, with a visible toe seam
- Waistband: the waistband area sits high and is described as noticeable, shown close up
- Sizing: VideoGirlAry notes the tights felt a bit large for her frame
VideoGirlAry styled the tights in two looks. The first was a casual daytime outfit with a white top and a short skirt, where she noted the skirt was slightly long and partially obscured the pattern detail. The second was a black satin mini dress intended as an evening look, which she felt showed off the tights more effectively and was her preferred combination.
On fit, she specifically flags that the size she received ran large on her, making the waistband area appear looser than ideal. She suggests that buyers who are between sizes may want to consider sizing down. Despite the fit issue, she gives the tights a broadly positive verdict, noting they work for both daytime and evening wear and that the transparent and opaque pattern is an interesting detail for the season.
