A Tight Fix

Hansel from Basel Tights

You’re no wallflower. You sported neon nails, bold printed dresses, and electric blue flats all summer long.

How to stand out come fall? With a debut collection of whimsical tights from Hannah Byun (the mastermind behind Los Angeles sock line Hansel from Basel).

Inspired by the zany work of Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, Byun whipped up festive patterned legwear in popping purples, tomato reds, and deep blues that will bring to life even your most boring LBD (little black dress). They’ll show off your gams in all their glory and are way more comfortable than a pair of constricting jeans.

Keep your peepers on the lookout for leggings in the coming months.

Byun is going balls to the wall.
