If you take a look to the Instagram pages of worldwide stars (this is really what social network had been invented for) you will surely remain surprised by the massive presence of fishnet socks and tights…Conclusion: Spring-Summer 2017 will be a “Fishnetseason”
But why is this accessory so special? Let us discover it with a step back in time…
Have you ever opened your mother’s wardrobe to look for an old dress which has become popular again? In some dusty drawer you will surely have found a pair of fishnet tights, the 2017 must-have that is rooted in an illustrious past.
You cannot resist to the charm of the three fashion divinities of the 50s: Sophia Loren, Marilyn Monroe and Brigitte Bardot were the first to wear fishnet tights. A scandalous look in an era where women were allowed only to wear opaque skin tights…very very opaque tights!

for high heels or punk make up with inguinal skirts.

Fishnet history is closely interwoven with many of the
most relevant historical movements: for example, in the 1960s the fishnettights and the transgressive short skirt were the symbol of the revolutionary
generation.
And again, as one of the most famous italian bloggers ClioMakeUp tells
us, after the 1960s the fishnet tights became the synonym of emancipation and
liberty, above all in 1980s, where the punk rock style had its peak of success.
Thanks to the icon of that period, the never-ending Madonna, fishnet tights
become the synonym of sensuality and transgression. They reached a worldwide
success in a climax that lead to 2000s, where in order to be a respected
teenager, you had to have at least a pair of fishnets.
FISHNET TIGHTS: A BOLD VERSATILITY AT HAND
Be
who you want, when you want.
Fishnet tights are a versatile garment, but also a very
dangerous choice: you could go out your house and feel everyone staring at your
legs “sausaged” in tight fishnet or glancing
at your figure, where vulgarity took the place of sensuality.
The most beloved (and copied) bloggers teach us, that
the fashion bon ton requires the
right outfit code in order to express the real potentiality of fishnet tights.
The style tips that should be absolutely followed depend on the
type of look you want to have: one of the trendiest is
Ripped Jeans &
Fishnet
This street style requires fishnet tights to be worn under ripped
jeans, ideal also for the chubbier figures, who will obtain a sensual
“see-through” appearance.
So now have fun taking a pair of old jeans and ripping
them (do not cut them…you have to rip them! If you want to obtain the desired “frayed”
effect), and styling them with a pair of fishnet tights with large or small
texture. Any kind of shoes can be worn with this outfit: Dr. Martins for a more
grunge look, heels for an everyday elegance.
To obtain a stylish look combine high waisted fishnet tights, which go
up the jeans edge with short tops or, for those who feel comfortable to show
their belly button, with tied t-shirts.
In this last case the most followed fashion outfit
comes from the “italianissima” Chiara Ferragni.

There are women who love a more romantic and sensual
style. For them
Skirt & Fishnet
❗Warning: if the skirt
is long you have free access to any type of shoes, as the new collection
Spring-Summer 2017 by Dolce e Gabbana shows.
BUT! If you want to dare with a short skirt, leather skirt, or shorts,
you should follow some simple tips in order to avoid appearing vulgar.
So… thumbs
up 👍 to ankle
boots and heavy-duty boots, light and simple T-shirts or maxi pull in the coldest
days, as the two bloggers Aimee Sung e Mikuta (📸⬇) show. Or,
again, with the “key” shoes of this year: Vans. Glamour Magazine suggests a
nude make up with this outfit, in order to be natural, simple and sober.
The secret, according to Luuk, is to mix&match: i.e. attenuating the sensual
strength of the fishnet look with sober garments.

The last look which is worth mentioning is:
Maxi-Blouse
& Fishnet
The perfect Rock-Outfit for those who love being
comfortable also out of their houses, without renouncing to their personal style.
FISHNET TIGHTS: THE INVASION
Entangled
Textiles everywhere…
Fishnet has invaded not only the web, social networks,
blogs, but also the worldwide runways.
Stylists as Valentino and Alexander Wang have remained
entangled in these stylish texttiles and designed not only tights…
