How to Wear Tights with Dresses

Nothing is simpler and more classic than black tights worn with a black dress. When it comes to choosing the right pair, first consider the dress you’re wearing. If it’s a sleek, plain design, like Autograph’s scoop-neck mini dress, we recommend choosing sheer tights. Our 10-denier style is perfect, with its lighter, matt finish that will bring depth to your look.

If you want something even more subtle, ditch the black tights completely and rely on a nude or beige pair. They’ll bring a layer of security and warmth to your outfit, without stealing the show. We’re currently loving Autograph’s 5-denier invisible sheer tights for a discreet yet comfortable finish. They’re made with the strength of a 15 denier style, but with our Cool Comfort technology so you won’t overheat – it’s a win-win.

When choosing what tights to wear with a red dress, you have free reign to pick pretty much any style, so why not have some fun? Our fishnet tights will add a playful detail to your look, while also smoothing your silhouette thanks to the Bodyshaper design.

If red isn’t your thing but you still want to elevate a party dress, we have a selection of tights that look great whatever colour takes your fancy. For the festive season, you can lean into a rich wintery palette with our Body Sensor tights, available in a pack of red, green and blue. Or why not colour drench in navy tights worn with a navy dress?

When picking black tights to wear with a pink dress, we love how this bow fishnet pair add a feminine touch to your outfit. Just slip on some kitten heels to amp up the romantic feel.
