Sheer 30 den black tights carrying two decorative elements at once — lurex thread running the entire length, and a dotted repeat over the top of it.
Highlights
✓
Lurex through the whole length, not just a panel or a border — Conte states that explicitly — with the dotted repeat sitting over the top of it. Two decorative elements on one 30 den ground.
✓
64% polyamide, 24% polyester, 12% elastane — one of only two three-fibre blends across the Conte hosiery stocked here, the other being its Rete Lurex tight, and both of those are the lurex styles. It also carries more elastane than any other Conte patterned tight here. Conte does not state which fibre the lurex thread itself is, so the polyester share is not confirmed as the metallic part.
✓
This is the page where the missing care label costs the most. Metallic thread is the part of a hosiery fabric most likely to need hand washing, and Conte publishes no washing instructions on this listing at all. Ask us before the first wash, not after.
✓
Flat seam and cotton gusset are specified; no toe reinforcement is. Conte does specify a reinforced toe on some of its other patterned tights, so assume a plain toe here until confirmed.
✓
One colour, Nero Black, in Conte sizes 2 to 5, across seven photographs. The dot size and spacing are not published, nor is whether the dots are knitted in or printed, nor the height-and-weight grid behind the size numbers.
Conte's other shimmering style is Conte Rete Lurex Fantasy Shimmering Tights, which takes the lurex to 40 den with a fine mesh effect and a reinforced shorts top instead of dots — that is the denser, more structured of the two. The plain geometrics are Conte Alba Fantasy Tights and Conte Graphic Fantasy Tights at 50 den and Conte Ingrid Fantasy Tights at 20 den, none of them with any metallic thread. All of those are still being set up here.
If the shimmer is the part you are unsure about, note that a dotted lurex tight reads very differently in daylight than under artificial light, and Conte publishes no description of the finish beyond "shiny". For plain sheer at a comparable denier, Conte Top Soft 40 Den is the option currently on sale here. More in the hosiery collection or the wider women's department.
64% polyamide, 24% polyester, 12% elastane. 30 den. Sizes S (2), M (3), L (4) and XL (5). One colour: Nero Black. Lurex threads along the entire length, dotted pattern, flat seam, cotton gusset. Conte states only "Made in Europe" — no country of manufacture is named. Not published on this listing: any washing or care instructions at all — the gap that matters most on a lurex fabric — plus the dot size and spacing, whether the dots are knitted in or printed, which fibre the lurex is, whether the toe is reinforced, and the height-and-weight grid behind sizes 2 to 5. Contact us and we will ask Conte for the care label and the size grid before you order.
