Black tights or nude with this dress

I have a wedding on Saturday and plan to wear this dress. I have black tights (not sheer black) and nude. Which do you think would look better? I plan on wearing black shoes. The dress is a tad short so I was thinking the black may give more coverage!

You need a sheer stocking, not tights with this dress.

Definitely not black tights, way too sever for this dress. Considering the weather, I guess you could get away with a sheer stocking, something really good quality that will not even be noticeable.

However, I would beeline to the bathroom upon arrival and take them off before joining the party.

Have stockings really become this fashion offensive, that we need to run and take them off before anyone sees us? LOL!

I may have used the wrong word when I say nude tights I meant sheer like the ones that look like you aren't wearing anything! I need something on my legs as they are scary white! Are sheer tights really that bad that everyone says don't wear them or take them off??

I know. Jeez.
I have high quality sheer pantyhose that are ULTRA sheer and look fine.
Trust me, guys still check out my legs!!

But seriously, nobody is going to look at you say - OMG panythose! Especially not if you get a sheer pair.
I doubt ANYONE is going to notice or care.

I think sheer pantyhose would be fine. Black tights not so much

Sheer pantyhose are fine. As long as you dont wear them with open toe shoes. I dont know anyone in real life that thinks sheer pantyhose are some kind of crime. Only on here.

Sheer for sure, especially for a wedding. I feel like black tights are less formal.

Beautiful dress btw!

Re: Black tights or nude with this dress

Due to weather and since its a short dress, I would do high quality black sheer stockings. I think it would look great. I'm personally not a fan of nude. I think black sheer is very sexy.

Oh, okay, I thought you meant nude tights!!! I am not a fan of sheer stockings at all, but if you have to wear something, I would go with black sheers, not black tights.

Re: Black tights or nude with this dress



Would do a nude sheer for sure. Definitely not black.

I find it funny how stockings/tights are so frowned upon. Sometimes Legs look much better with a stocking than bare. I know I've seen some doozies; mine included. Chat Icon

Thank you! LOL
Sometimes I see people's bare legs and I think, and we get all up in arms over pantyhose? Pantyhose would look 100 times better!

Re: Black tights or nude with this dress

If you prefer your legs covered, I think sheer nude stockings are right for this dress. Black tights are not for a formal affair IMO (especially with that dress)

The dress is very pretty - great color!

Pretty dress. I'm wearing a similar dress in black with that lace look and wearing high quality sheer nude or black stockings. Definitely wearing something out in that cold no bare legs for me.

I always wear stockings in the winter. The summer maybe not. But, I really don't understand why they are so bad. I mean I won't wear that suntan color.

Re: Black tights or nude with this dress

I have pale legs AND its cold in the winter, so I always wear stockings (or tights) if I'm wearing a dress in the colder months. I'd wear a nude/tan stocking, and either black/nude shoes.

With this dress, YES!

Can't wear black tights with it, way too severe, and the sheer hosiery always make me think of Sophia Petrillo... that's just me though! :)
