Harisnyanadrág

Harisnyanadrág is the Hungarian word for tights or pantyhose. These are garments that cover the legs and feet, often worn by women as undergarments or as a fashion accessory. They are typically made from a blend of synthetic materials such as nylon, spandex, and polyester, which allow for elasticity and a smooth fit. Harisnyanadrág come in various deniers, a unit of measurement indicating the thickness and opacity of the fabric. Lower deniers are sheer and delicate, while higher deniers are more opaque and durable.

Historically, leg coverings for women evolved from stockings, which were separate garments for each leg. The development of seamless knitting technology in the 20th century led to the creation of pantyhose, which combined stockings with a brief-like upper section. This innovation offered greater convenience and a smoother silhouette under clothing. Harisnyanadrág can be found in a wide range of colors, from neutral tones like nude, black, and grey to bolder shades and patterns, allowing for diverse styling options. They are commonly worn with dresses, skirts, and shorts, and can also provide a degree of warmth in cooler weather. The term "harisnya" itself refers to stockings.
