From Mischa to Kirsten to Penélope, all the cool girls are stepping out in leg-lengthening black opaque tights. Mimi Merkin, legwear design director for HUE, recommends using the stockings as a layer under this season's sweater dresses and plaid skirts. "The black opaque is the perfect fall accessory and pretty much goes with everything these days," Merkin says. She advises wearing control-top or heavy opaque tights under knits (to counteract lumps and bumps) and trying a thigh-high version for maximum comfort. And don't think tights are just for daytime. Says Merkin: "The black opaque [tights] are no longer taboo for evening. Many designers showed shimmery evening dresses paired with black opaques and evening sandals." Looks like all the cool girls would agree.
