This seems to be the trend since Kate Middleton started the Rumpf shimmer tights market to sky rocket.

Rumpf Shimmer Tights were originally made to be women’s dance wear. Shimmer tights are made of 90% Nylon & 10% lycra. Rumpf Shimmer Tights are footed and have a fitted gusset. Shimmer tights come in many sizes, and also come in a handful of colors. Most popular colors are nude, and suntan.

Due to Kate Middleton wearing the shimmer tights, companies have seen a 40%-90% increase in sales! Kate’s favorite style is the nude colored shimmer tights.Kate Middleton started wearing shimmer tights, not for fashion, but because they are what’s required for all of the women in royalty. Typically shimmer tightsare worn with closed toed shoes, but Ms. Middleton changed that up too by wearing sandals and a polo with the shimmer tights.Before the Kate Middleton trend, shimmer tights had been pretty much obsolete. Women were wearing colored tights, but wouldn’t dare slip on the nude colored shimmer tights that their moms wore in the 70′s and 80′s. Shimmer tights weren’t considered unless there was a work code, or a woman wanted to hide her legs. The opaque colored tights became a fashion statement of their own, with many colors, and things like lace, or even in other fabrics.

It appears as though fashion has done a full circle and many people are now sporting the Rumph Shimmer Tights style. You too can pull it off! Whether you are wearing the shimmer tights with a formal work outfit, or just wearing a casual outfit out for the evening, shimmer tights are sure to add that special touch. Worried about wearing sandals with your shimmer tights? Don’t sweat it! There are many women that believe a lady should never have bare legs, so go ahead and wear your shimmer tights with sandals as well!
