Heidi Klum is making a strong case for bringing lace back into the fall wardrobe.
The supermodel stars in Calzedonia’s new Lace Tights campaign, stepping out in a rich bordeaux look that puts hosiery firmly at the centre of the outfit. Instead of treating tights as a finishing touch, the styling makes them the main event.
Heidi wears sheer floral lace tights with a sharply tailored blazer in the same deep wine tone, creating a monochrome look that feels sleek, sensual and very season appropriate. Matching pointed heels extend the line of the leg, while the contrast between structured tailoring and delicate lace keeps the outfit from feeling too polished.
That is really the appeal of the look. Lace tights can easily read romantic or retro, but paired with strong tailoring they suddenly feel much more modern. Think oversized blazers, mini skirts, leather, knit dresses or even a simple black coat with dramatic hosiery underneath.
Heidi’s version is bold, but the idea is easy to borrow. Keep the rest of the outfit simple and let the texture of the tights do the work.
The season of legs and lace has officially arrived, and Calzedonia is clearly betting on hosiery becoming one of fall’s easiest statement pieces.
