Product Insights
DIM's Diam's Shaping Tights combine a dense 45-denier, 17%-elastane fabric with flat-seam construction and a non-digging waistband to provide medium compression and all-day shape retention without visible ridges under clothing, but the semi-opaque coverage means they show skin in direct sunlight or when stretched, and they require hand washing to preserve the shaping.
Verified claims
- Coverage
- At 45 denier, the tights read nearly black in most indoor light but may reveal a faint silhouette when stretched or in direct sunlight.
- Seams
- Flat seams and seamless silhouette avoid visible ridges under fitted clothing.
- Shaping
- The tights are sold as shaping and typically provide medium compression for full-leg smoothing, though DIM does not publish a light/medium/firm compression rating.
- Shape retention
- Denser 17% elastane and 45 denier fabric resist sagging
- Sizing
- Across 20 La Redoute ratings for the Diam's tights line, 95% recommend the product and the fit is aggregated as 'True to size'.
- Fit retention
- 83% polyamide, 17% elastane blend prevents bagging and sagging all day, outperforming peers with 14-15% elastane.
- Denier weight
- 45 denier, heavier than competitors' 20-40 denier, for durable fabric and smooth satin finish.
- Stretch and comfort
- 17% elastane enables four-way stretch for a forgiving fit and a non-digging waistband.
- Waistband
- 17% elastane allows stretch and recovery for all-day hold without digging.
- Finish
- Made in France with a repassé press finish that eliminates knit irregularities for a uniform satin look.
- Care
- Hand wash only; avoid bleach, heat, and dry cleaning to maintain shaping.
- Materials and construction
- 17% elastane, flat-seam construction, and French repass finish deliver lasting shape retention and a uniform satin look.

A leg-slimming look under dresses or skirts
These 45 denier semi-opaque tights are designed to shape and slim the whole leg while staying comfortable for all-day wear. The brand says they have no visible demarcation and flat seams, so they can be worn under clothing without showing lines.[1,2,3]
Comfortable everyday wear with no visible seam lines
These 45 denier semi-opaque shaping tights are designed to be worn comfortably throughout the day, with a comfortable elastic waistband and flat seams under the brand's Diam's line. DIM promotes the tights as offering 'absolute comfort' (a marketing claim on the packaging), so comfort descriptions reflect the brand's own wording rather than verified results.[1,2,3]
Semi-opaque black tights for even, polished leg coverage
These 45 denier black tights are made to give legs an even, solid look with an opaque effect and a satin finish, making them a fit for workdays or dressed-up outfits when you want more coverage than sheer styles. The catalog names them semi-opaque even though the packaging is labeled opaque, so expect a semi-opaque look. Details like a comfortable elastic waistband and reinforced toe support all-day wear.[1,2,3,4]
Everyday semi-opaque tights built to last
These DIM Diam's 45 denier shaping tights are made with a strong nylon blend and a reinforced toe, making them a candidate for regular wear when you want tights that hold up over time. The packaging carries a brand label reading RÉSISTANT (resistant), a durability claim from DIM rather than a verified result.[2,3]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Diam's Shaping Tights 45 Denier - Semi-Opaque: Choose this if you want a black 45-denier shaping tight with a comfortable elastic waistband, reinforced toe, and flat seams, made of 83% polyamide and 17% elastane and knitted in France. The brand markets it as offering a perfect leg shape and absolute comfort, and it comes in sizes 1 through 4. Note that while the catalog lists it as semi-opaque, the packaging label reads opaque, so exact leg coverage may vary.[1,2,3] | Invisible-Toe Body-Shaping Pantyhose 17 Denier - Ultra-Fine: Choose this if you want ultra-sheer 17 denier pantyhose with invisible toes and a support panty that slims the silhouette for a smooth look under clingy dresses. Reviewers describe a comfortable, stay-put fit with a barely-there feel, though some note the delicate fabric can run or ladder, especially if donned hastily, so handle them carefully. They come in Cappuccino and Tan, in sizes 1 through 4.[5] | Sublim Satiny Pantyhose 15 Denier - Ultra-Fine: Choose this if you want ultra-fine 15 denier sheer pantyhose with a satiny finish for office or daily wear, or for evening looks with dresses, and value the firm yet comfortable support some reviewers report. The stretch nylon blend (87% polyamide, 13% elastane) has a true-to-size fit with reinforced toes and a stop-run feature, though it is not designed as a high-gloss statement piece and some find the sheen more subtle than expected. Note that reviewers report mixed durability: the fine fabric can snag or run easily on first wear, especially around sharp edges like fingernails or rings, so it suits careful wearers more than extended days with lots of movement.[6,7,8] |
