Lthe latest, controversial trend from the stars? Going out in pantyhose. Without skirt and much less trousers: just a pair of sockssheer or covering. Questionable? What is certain is that the outfits pantless are more popular than ever among celebs in 2023, from the wife of Kanye West, Bianca Censorsto Rihanna. Passing through Kylie And Kendall Jennerbut also Emma Corrin.
Forerunner of the genre, Kim Kardashian, who already showed them in unsuspecting times. And she was soon followed by her ex-husband’s new flames, from Bianca Censors to Julia Fox. Who wears them better? And is there a way to copy their style, possibly without risking any denunciation – exactly as happened to the much talked about, latest companion of the rapper?
Kim Kardashian launched the trend
It all started, in fact, with Kim, who has always been the queen of transgressive and over the top looks. It was 2017 and the businesswoman, still wife at the time of Kanye West, showed off a pair of very sheer black ankle-length tights, combined with a matching top and bra. Above, just one leather blazer. Yet what may have seemed like a controversial look at the time now appears almost demure.

The looks pantless of Kanye’s new wife
Yes, because fashion and its followers have dared much more since then. Just think, in fact, of Bianca Censors. Her unlined looks in Italy this summer, in addition to the obscene acts in public places, have definitely caused discussion, and the credit was above all for the use of exposed tights and nude-effect leggings which left no room for the imagination.
Nigerian designer Mowalola Ogunlesi, hired by the rapper in 2020 to helm the Yeezy Gap collaboration, told PageSix that the couple works together to create skimpy outfits, using Wolford brand tights and revisiting them, to make people talk about themselves. But whatever the origin of Ye’s wife’s unscrupulous ensembles, it is undeniable that the trend of no pants was already in the air.
Kendall and Kylie Jenner’s outfits with designer tights
Remaining in the Kardashian clan, they have already been out in just pantyhose Kendall and Kylie Jenner. And their looks carry the most prestigious signatures: in November last year, Kendall wore a total outfit Bottega Veneta composed of a blue pullover and dark tights, combined with a pair of culottes, which came right from the brand’s seasonal Autumn-Winter catwalk. Kylie Jenner, for her part, was spotted wearing a tank top Loewe, some men’s boxers and a pair of sheer socks. To cover as much as possible, a long gray coat.

to the last one Venice Film Festival, Emma Corrin he wore a total look Miu Miu, consisting of cardigan, exposed culottes and brown socks. On the feet, a pair of monk straps from the co-lab with Church’s. In short, Kanye’s wife is not the only one to cause, so to speak, scandal. The tights are almost always the same, but the result is different to the eye: the difference lies in interpreting the undeniable trend – looks with only visible tights are very popular at the Autumn-Winter 2023/2024 fashion shows – in a personal way .
