Red Tights Please!

julie | trend alert, where to get the trend | Thursday, 26 June 2008

After the lasting popularity of black tights (and their many counter parts), it was exciting to see some designers sending bright red tights down the runways recently.  I thought this look had possibilities, but I was a little skeptical as to whether an adult woman could pull it off in real life without looking too childish.  So, I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled for good examples of how to pull them off and I think I’ve found some convincing evidence to prove that these red tights can be quite chic and wearable.

First let’s take a look at some of the runway looks:

Zac Posen

Viktor + Rolph

Erin Fetherston

And now, some street style pics of girls rocking the look:

This last outift is my favorite.  I love every element of this look!  I don’t think it would too difficult to emulate.  If you’re looking for red tights, I suggest going to welovecolors.com for the greatest selection of colors.
