Hollywood has all but made sheer black tights 2024’s unofficial uniform. Julia Roberts, Emma Stone, Taylor Swift, and Selena Gomez have all paired their short-hemmed outfits with the wardrobe staple, and just last week, Meryl Streep and Uma Thurman twinned in the tights as well.
At the 40th anniversary screening of Sophie’s Choice, both actresses opted for crisp white button-downs, black overcoats, pencil skirts, and that sexy-but-practical undergarment. Their nearly identical looks weren’t just a reminder of how hot business-wear can be (though they definitely convinced me my wardrobe needs a pencil skirt), but showcased how easy it is to zhush up your favorite leg-bearing pieces even more. Not only do sheer tights add a little sex appeal, but they’re a seriously affordable hack that can take your existing wardrobe from fall to winter to spring.
We found seven styles inspired by the ageless trend Hollywood loves, starting at just $5 apiece.
G&Y Sheer Tights 3-Pack, $15 (Originally $18); amazon.com
Mitid Fleece-Lined Tights, $10 (Originally $15); amazon.com

G&Y Sheer Tights 3-Pack
Amazon
If you’re looking to add the style to your wardrobe for less, consider grabbing G&Y’s three-pack at Amazon, where the tights are on sale for $5 apiece. This pick is available in sizes XS to 3XL, and boasts more than 5,900 perfect ratings, with one fan writing that the “silky” tights “smooth” their legs and “look sexy.” But beyond their look, shoppers were shocked by how high-quality the affordable tights are. “The material is fantastic [and] not easily snagged,” wrote one person who called them “perfect for everyday wear.” And per someone else, these are “the most resilient hose ever.” “I have worn these… weekly for six months now and have had no runs,” they raved.
Mitid Fleece-Lined Tights
Amazon
These thick, fleece-lined tights might not actually be sheer, but they give the illusion of it, giving you that same look with additional warmth. The style is available in three colors designed to mimic different skin tones, with shoppers writing that people are “amazed when they realize it’s not [their] actual skin.” “You really can’t tell that these are leggings and not sheer stockings,” they continued, adding that the style is “warm and comfortable” and fits snuggly. “ “They are so warm without the bulk and they miraculously look like sheer tights,” gushed someone else.
Sheertex Classic Sheer Rip-Resist Tights
Sheertex
If you’re willing to splurge, shoppers say that Sheertex’s rip-resistant tights are “absolutely worth” the price thanks to the “quality and durability.” “I wear them three-plus times a week and they still look good as new,” one shopper wrote. Another person described them as being “unbelievably strong and silky,” while someone else noted that they’re able to stand up to “torn fingernails and jumping dogs.” And according to a customer who called these “the best pair of tights” they own, their “pup… has decimated every single pair of tights [they] own until now,” noting that a single pair has lasted them over a year.
Sheer tights might be this year’s most universally-loved trend, with everyone from Streep and Thurman to Swift making the case for the sexy but versatile undergarment. Shop more semi-opaque pantyhose inspired by the Hollywood-favorite hack, below.
