In the realm of fashion, a fascinating phenomenon has been taking over the world of hosiery – the sudden surge in popularity of Calzedonia Tights among celebrities. As a fashion investigative reporter, my mission is to explore this phenomenon and uncover the reasons behind the brand’s rise to fame.

Fellow fashion commerce editor Meg Donohue has been receiving numerous emails from curious readers eager to learn more about celebrity fashion choices. Together, we strive to report back and help our readers recreate the coveted looks of their favorite celebrities. For instance, when Jacob Elordi is spotted with a Bottega Veneta tote, we provide the details of the exact tote and where to purchase it.

According to Meg, Calzedonia Tights have been a hot topic in her inbox. At least once a week, she receives a new alert informing her that celebrities like Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, or Bella Hadid have been seen donning Calzedonia Tights. This week, the pinnacle of Calzedonia’s success was evident when Gigi Hadid sported a pair of $10 Calzedonia Tights at the Met Gala. What is it about these tights that have captured the attention of the world’s most famous women?

Determined to unravel this mystery, Meg reached out to Calzedonia and was directed to Adee Drexler, founder, and CEO of ICA, the agency that represents the Italian brand. Drexler and her team at ICA work with numerous well-known and celebrity-loved brands, including Cult Gaia, Simon Miller, I.AM.GIA, and Danielle Guizio. Through their work, they’ve established strong connections with A-list stylists.

Drexler reveals that once they know a stylist has Calzedonia Tights in their possession, they keep a close watch for potential sightings. They then confirm with the stylist that the tights in question are indeed Calzedonia before alerting fashion editors like Meg and myself.

Several renowned stylists have shared their thoughts on Calzedonia Tights. Yael Quint, a stylist for celebrities like Julia Fox, Kris Jenner, and Jamie Chung, has declared it as her “go-to tights brand.” Natasha Colvin, who has dressed Timothée Chalamet, Irina Shayk, and Nicola Peltz Beckham, also praises the brand, citing its wide variety of colors, fabrics, and patterns as a key selling point. Stylist Zoe Gofman, who has worked with influencers Remi Bader and Erika Costell, appreciates the quality and durability of Calzedonia Tights. Even Jared Eng, aka Just Jared, is a fan of the brand, calling it a “one-stop shop” for hosiery.

Calzedonia has also forged a strong partnership with stylist Dani Michelle, who frequently dresses celebrities like Jenner and Bieber in the brand’s tights. With prices ranging from $10-$20, it’s no wonder fans are eager to emulate the looks of their favorite leggy models and internet personalities.
