Red tights are the star of this winter. Here are our tips for wearing them with grace and elegance.

Red tights have had fans through the ages. Louis XIV loved them. So did Lady Di. Not to mention Blair Waldorf's character in the famous TV series Gossip Girl. In short, after great moments of popularity followed by just as many phases of oblivion, red tights are back in the spotlight. It has to be said that the colour red in general is ultra-trendy this season. On Insta, every fashionista (or almost every fashionista) is wearing red tights. They're absolutely everywhere.

Influencer Linda, whose handle is @linda.sza, has shared several photos dedicated to this key piece. Including this look.

Decrypting: Linda chose to layer a white blouse, a grey jumper and a black blazer. By combining timeless pieces in neutral colours, she has created an outfit with depth that beautifully showcases her tights. Her blazer is oversized, and her shoes have massive proportions: two on-trend elements that give a magical twist to retro pieces like the beret and cat-eye sunglasses. As for the striped scarf, it adds geometric motifs without overpowering the ensemble. Gold creoles and a red shopper bag echoing the colour of the tights: that's it, Linda's outfit is perfect!

Has endless love for shoulder pads, Stratocasters and sashimi, but a limited tolerance for bad impressions of her Eastern Swiss dialect.
