Pantyhose in Music Videos
(The original video for this one has since been taken down from YouTube — keeping the write-up for the record.)
Today’s featured pantyhose music video was directed by Diane Martel for the Editors and it’s a nice indie rock post-punk revival track called “An End has a Start” featured on the band’s second album, released in 2007, which shares the same name. The video has some conceptual similarities to the Calvin Harris one we posted since they both feature minimal settings and multicoloured opaque pantyhose.
Diane Martel‘s resume is impressive, she’s directed well over 60 music videos all the way since 1993 including some for artists like Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, Method Man and other celebrity pop stars. We’re glad she underwent this much more alternative project with the Editors which culminated in this fun colourful legwear experience.
Unlike what’s seen on the Calvin Harris pantyhose music video here the pantyhose are completely visible right up to the waistband and seams in an underwear as outerwear approach. It’s dressed over tight black leotards while the tennis shoes with high soles are of a contrasting white.
There’s also a doll like automaton appearance to the dancers like they are semi-dressed window mannequins made to perform in sometimes robotic choreographed danced moves at the will of the musicians.
To summarize it we think it’s a really cool minimal pantyhose music video and is a definitely worth addition to our list of favourites.
