Daylight Robbery: Floral patterened tights by Chloe
OK, so these aren’t quite as expensive as the £90 tights we featured back in November, but given that The Fashion Police don’t tend to have a lot of luck with tights, which seem to ladder if we so much as look at them, we’re thinking the £60 price tag on these floral Chloe tights is just a little bit much for the likes of us.
That said, we do quite like the pattern (and even if we didn’t, it looks like patterned tights are going to big this winter, so we better start getting used to them), and we have no idea whether or not it’s the quality of these, rather than the designer name, that justifies the price. We suspect it’s probably the latter, but that could just be us being cynical again…
What do you think, readers? Would you pay £60 for these? Come to think of it, would you wear them at all?
I’m ready for the tights fad to work itself out. I mean, I don’t mind winter tights but…I don’t know, heavily patterned tights just NEVER look chic and they don’t even look cheap and edgy anymore just…played out.
Yeah, I don’t like patterned tights either. My sister used to give me patterned tights as presents because she loved wearing them herself (and presumably thought I would too), then kept on and on at me about why I never wore them… It was awkward.
I wouldn’t ever pay £60 for tights. That is way too expensive!
I’m a fan of tights, I have them in about 4 different shades of charcoal right now. But patterned tights, I fear, may push me over into child-like territory again.
I would wear them for sure. Maybe – MAYBE – I would even pay this much. In my defence: I have a somewhat of a fetish, so…
I’m not so sure about patterned tights. I have some (gifts), but I rarely wear them. Mostly they get worn under pants when it’s really cold, or shown slightly with the skirt, and tall boots combo.
Definitely wouldn’t pay 60 for these. They look cute but I’d rather take the pattern from the socks and make a dress lol.
I think they’re gorgeous and I’d love to wear them. But that price? No. Just no.
I like them, but for that much, I could just make them out of some cheap patterned fabric.
