These tights provide firm but comfortable shaping. They are made of 90% nylon and 10% elastane- therefore they have some stretch. They look glossy and shiny on and are smooth to the touch.I ordered the 'bronze glow' in size L. I am 5'9" tall and dress size 10-12. They fit me well and I would say that they are true you size. You are advised (in the information) to hand wash these tights with delicate detergent and not to tumble dry them. I would say that the 'bronze glow' is quite a deep tan colour, but it isn't dark. On pasty pale white me, I will add some slightly tinted make up to my arms, neck, face to balance it.They are well made, with a gusset, a seam at the front and back of the body and reinforced areas. The body/ hip/ thighs area is reinforced, as are toes and they have a stretchy waist band. They provide control and support, whilst still looking sheer, elegant, glossy and attractive.I wore these tights for a long afternoon out followed by an evening event. They looked great with no signs of wear or laddering. They are comfortable and seem to be long lasting, even though they are a fairly thin 15 denier. They were breathable too, I didn't get hot or uncomfortable in them.I think these tights are great for special occasions. The shaping is flattering, and the colour and shine is stunning. I was lucky enough to recieve this pack of 2 pairs of tights for free as a member of Amazon Vine. I think £9.99 is a little bit expensive (price at the time of writing this review). However, I think it is worth it for the support, shine and quality of these flattering tights.
