Coloured Tights

Miss Oroblu, as the name they picked for themselves suggests, are a brand for the next generation. Dawn went to see their latest release at the incredible CSP International headquarters in Milan. The word she brought back was encouraging. The brains at Miss Oroblu have decided to pull the rug from under themselves and start [...]

Starting a Revolution

by Kyle on January 20, 2012

January is marking a windfall for our fashion tights range. Oroblu are not letting up their constant showmanship. They’ve stolen the thunder and their already using it to dramatic effect. This is one one of several pieces I’ve published on Oroblu over the past week. Sorry to seem so insistent on that point, but I [...]

The Game Changer

by Kyle on January 18, 2012

Oroblu have, yet again, left me reeling, speechless and dumbfounded. Over the last few posts, I’ve reviewed some absolute gems that they’ve released this season, but today we got a whole bunch of new designs and, quite frankly, they leave the fashion tights standard in a cloud of dust.

by Kyle on January 17, 2012

Today’s post is another in my series of fantastic navy tights. This morning, I spotted a particularly intriguing item that I’ve never given editorial space to, something that combines two of our most loved and intensely popular kinds of items together. Something unique. Pierre Mantoux Connie, the only design that blends lace fabric and navy [...]

Emeralds Are A Girl’s Best Friend

by Kyle on January 13, 2012

Yesterday I wrote about Oroblu turning modern fashion trends into traditions, and how unique their work is. But I missed something important about Lilian. The colour.

Some I’ve seen recently are a fantastic example of thinking outside the box. Buttons and pins, attached to the thick woolly fabric of a leg warmer or to the [...]

Apologies to you, the rather agreeable reader, firstly. In my last post, I enthusiastically stated I would be writing about an item I really loved. Something that would go well with Burns Night outfits. Well, I still am writing about this, until I realised I already posted on the lovely here. Oh jolly good, I’m [...]

Run For Your Lives!

by Kyle on October 21, 2011

I took my last post as an opportunity to vent vitriol at Halloween tights designers. I was, and still am, peeved that orange is not featuring as much as it deserves to be this year. I also went on to deliver fiery death to red and green, which are both much more popular nowadays. Huh, [...]
