A renaissance of brown
Like nude tights, brown tights have not resisted the dominance of black, which in recent years has been heavy on this garment, classified as an “accessory”, but very often necessary in winter wardrobes. And now the chocolate shade can benefit from its fashion moment. In any case, that’s what tights brand Calzedonia is noticing, showing that mocha represented 1% of sheer tights sales in December 2021, up from 9% in 2022. , which is also evident in social networks.
Mahogany, coffee or caramel, the brown palette is slowly but surely regaining its place in the tights vocabulary. A return that can also be explained by the indications of the fashionable theory of colorimetry. They question the universality of black, suggesting that warmer browns are more flattering on certain skin tones. Opinion is spreading on TikTok, which lists many videos extolling the virtues of this stylish find, which will replace the classic black in everyday clothes.
All lights are brown
Because they’re basic like black, but also fancy tights like any other color, chocolate tights do double duty. Twice as many reasons to try! To begin with, it is better to choose a side. Or play the color card and choose opaque tights that will be fitted in monochrome, for example. Or find a slightly brown shade to replace the black to subtly revitalize the look. A problem of envy.
