Crystal Clear Fashion

Tuesday, May 5, 2009


If you're looking for "wow factor" look no further than the Viper Luxx tights from Bebaroque. Now for those of you who, like me, expected to see a viper on a pair of tights, you are mistaken. So where did they get the name? I'm sure I have no idea.

But what you do get is a very intricate and detailed floral pattern, something quite popular on tights this season but never done in quite the detail you'll see here. The pattern starts a couple of inches above the ankle and climbs in vine-like fashion up to almost the top of the thigh. The pattern consists of a few different kinds of flowers (I'd elaborate, but botanist I am not) mixed with vines.

What's interesting is, worn here, the pattern on the left leg starts at the front of the ankle and rises above the knee, while the pattern on the right leg starts around the top of the calf and rises up to the middle of the back of the thigh. Alternatively, however, the wearer can turn these tights around so the lower pattern is on the back of the right leg and the higher pattern is on the front of the left. It's like having two tights in one and can allow the wearer to get creative depending upon what she or he plans on wearing over it.

What makes these tights "luxx" is the fact that cut crystals are scattered about the tights combined with tones of gold and fuchsia. The patterns are hand embroidered. The tights are 80 denier and 93% nylon and 7% elastane. They are available in cream color only. They'll set you back some $101.49, as crystals and hand embroidery don't come for cheap. At a price like that, one might wonder weather to wear them or display them like artwork around the house.
