Can anyone recommend some opaque 100 denier tights with a high waist? I’m sick of tights that are too short in the body

I find Primark thick tights to be excellently long in the body - I'm 5'9.5" and long in the body and they come right up to the bottom of my brain.

Haha, my BRA, not my brain. Wtf autocorrect Confused

Primark yes I buy a bigger size I'm 5'11 and they come
Up to my waist my torso is looooooong

Brilliant thank you - I’m off to Primark for the up-to-my brainers!

Getting a size up is def the key to getting them to come up to you brain Wink

I can also highly recommended their fleece lined leggings - not quite brain-length but nice and long in the body!

Heist high waisted are also pretty high. But pricey.

Primary tights are amazing! Cheap as chips, wash really well, properly sized and the elastic lasts so much better than more expensive brands I have tried.

*Primark

Peachyking000 · 24/11/2017 20:39

Simply Be is also great for high waisted ones

DancingHouse · 24/11/2017 20:49

Primark v good for the price.

My favourite are the expensive Sainsbury’s range. Don’t know what they’re called but they’re velvety and pricier than the bif standard ones.

How are primark tights at holding in a flabby tum? I usually buy control tights for this reason.

YouCantArgueWithStupid · 26/11/2017 15:54

Mother care maternity tights all the way 👌🏼

I find that control tights end up rolling down my tummy and cutting me in two with a tightly rolled band of lycra.

I quite like the M&S Autograph seamless tights. They're quite pricey at £10 a pair though.
