Pantyhose & Tights

These awesome Gabriella Ayra Skewed Black pantyhose with their unique skewed pattern and no marked panties area makes them a great item to wear with denim and leather ultra short shorts. This combination is guaranteed to be a huge success and will fit both casual and fancier looks. You can also use this with a simple LBD or flat colored dress which will definitely boost the attention drawn towards your legs.

These double braided polyamide tights are sewed with a flat stream and have really high end finishings. The skewed bands in varying opacities display a striped horizontal pattern on the less opaque areas and a vertical pattern on the more opaque sections. These have a textured feel noticeable especially on the thinner stripes and a nice expansion throughout the extent of the legs. The textured stripes are therefore a very nice detail that makes these tights stand out from other skewed pantyhose styles that we’ve seen before, it’s from these tiny but noticeable details that you realize how great the manufacturing quality of this brand is.

The fiber is made out of 95% Polyamide and 15% Elastan and the whole range of sizes features a cotton gusset and reinforced toes. They have a really accessible price of 11.20€ and they’re worth every cent of it since we consider them a must have in every hosiery drawer.

They’re available in black and smoky grey (the pair featured on the photos below is black) and you can acquire them through the Gabriella online store.

We hope that you enjoy them as much as we do.

Gabriella has an even longer history in Polish hosiery manufacturing: founded in 1996 in Łódź, the country’s historic textile capital, it grew from a small family business into one of Europe’s larger hosiery manufacturers, helped along by a 2010 relocation that gave it one of the most modern production setups in Poland. It now exports to more than 35 countries and picked up Poland’s “Best in Poland” and “Consumer’s Laurel” awards in 2014 — a track record that shows in the kind of detail work described above.

Our take: the lack of a marked panty line area on a skewed pattern like this is a genuinely underrated detail worth checking for on any patterned tights meant to be worn under very short hemlines, since a visible seam line there is what usually gives away a lower-quality pair.
