I’ll be honest. I didn’t think I’d see the return of 2002-esque footless tights, well, ever. But if there’s one thing we can rely on in fashion, it’s that everything is cyclical, and though I may have shiver-inducing memories of bright-pink footless tights paired with a DIY studded miniskirt from my childhood, others might be excited for the return of this hosiery. And if anyone could convince me to entertain the idea of a footless-tights revival, it’s Sienna Miller.
The intrigue of Miller’s style comes from its unpredictability. You can really never guess what she’ll wear next. Some days she embraces bohemian classics, whilst on other days she edges towards classic minimalism, and just as you think you’ve figured her out, she takes on new modern trends. This year, cut-outs and barely there styles have infiltrated all parts of fashion from the everyday to beachwear to evening styles. Just after sporting a cutesy babydoll silhouette last week, Miller did a 180 and ramped up the drama with the on-trend cut-out mini and those footless tights, providing plenty of inspiration for upcoming festivities.
