Watch Chiara’s full review of the Cecilia De Rafael Eterno. These are a 10 denier black tights from Cecilia De Rafael, and their defining characteristic is an exceptionally high-gloss yarn that sets them apart from standard black hosiery.
The first thing Chiara notes after opening the packaging is that this is a bare-look construction: there is no pre-formed gusset panel, only a simple tassello. The yarn runs uniformly from toe to waistband, which means the intense shine is consistent across the entire leg, including the foot and sole.
Chiara wears the tights across two outfits during the review. The first is a black sleeveless mini dress paired with gold-heeled décolleté pumps. The second is a short red blazer dress worn with black patent stilettos featuring a red sole. In both looks she observes that the reflective quality of the yarn changes with every movement, sending light back from the front, back, and sides of the leg simultaneously.
Key features noted during the review:
- 10 denier weight: very lightweight and close to the skin
- High-gloss yarn: intense shine visible from every angle, front and back of the leg
- No toe reinforcement: the toe is finished with a plain seam only, which Chiara finds unobtrusive and comfortable
- Waistband: the elastic is soft and not overly tight, causing no compression or discomfort at the waist
- Fit and movement: tights stay in place without sliding down and do not form excessive creases at the knee
- Comfort feel: Chiara describes a pleasant, gentle massaging sensation against the skin
On fit and hold, Chiara reports that the tights follow the body closely throughout wear, adapting well to movement without bunching. The waistband seam is gentle enough that it is barely noticeable, and the toe seam similarly causes no irritation. The sheen extends all the way to the sole of the foot, which she highlights as a distinctive detail not commonly found in everyday black tights.
Chiara’s overall verdict is positive. She recommends these tights to anyone who wants to move away from an ordinary opaque or matte black tight and try something with a striking, eye-catching gloss. The purchase link is available in the video description for those who wish to order a pair.
