Be Wicked! Can't Back Down Pantyhose – Red

Few things finish a costume faster than red fishnet tights. Be Wicked!'s Can't Back Down in red is the standard one-size pair, with an oversized open net in a strong, clear red that pops against bare skin, black leather or denim.

Costumes and celebrations

Red net is a shortcut for devil, pirate, ringmaster and pin-up characters, and it gives a little black dress a lift for Valentine's or a holiday party. With a denim mini and a black top it reads more rock than costume. Because the diamonds are large, a lot of skin shows, which keeps the red playful.

Red legs, two ways

Be Wicked also makes red opaque thigh highs. Those give a solid, smooth red that stops at the upper thigh, which suits a garter look. This pantyhose runs all the way to the waist and shows skin through the net, which is easier under a short hem and needs no clips.

Fit and care

The one-size cut is aimed at about US 6–12 and a 34–40 inch hip, going by Be Wicked's general guide. The 92% nylon and 8% spandex knit stretches, and a retailer listing notes a solid waistband. For a roomier cut there is a red Queen pair. Wash it on its own in cold water the first few times, since strong reds can release dye, and dry it flat. The thong in the photos isn't included.
