Skin Tight

Posted November 7, 2008
The liquid-latex trend that Lindsay Lohan, Fergie, and other starlets so wonderfully popularized is starting to play itself out. But just as one trend dissipates, another leg-warming movement is ready on the horizon – this in the form of two-tone tights. Karl Lagerfeld first showed these on the Chanel fall runway, and we were hooked to the simple, clever new approach. But Chanel’s are $295. And frankly, that’s just a tad too risky for pantyhose that are sure to snag. Instead, achieve the sheer/opaque look with something similar, like this pair by Urban Outfitters. At $14 a pair, they’re worth trying out the trend. Consider it a savvy investment choice that’s more of a knockout than a knockoff. And no one will be the wiser.
