BLACKPINK Lisa's tights: Celine in Paris, Louis Vuitton hold-ups, sheer black in New York and the monogram at the Met Gala

Lisa does not use tights for colour. Across three years and two houses, Celine and then Louis Vuitton, her legs come back to the same thing: sheer black, close to the skin, under a short hem. What changes is the top of the leg, a full pair of tights in Paris, hold-ups at a Louis Vuitton show, the house monogram at the Met Gala. Here are her tights looks in order, each with its photo, and with what has been credited and what has not.

Celine stripes and sheer black: Paris (January 2023)

On 28 January 2023 Lisa posted a set of photos from Paris with the caption "Memorable times in Paris". In the first, a mirror selfie, she wears a two-piece Celine set: a short-sleeved cropped jacket in black and white stripes with gold buttons and a matching mini skirt, over a black turtleneck. The South China Morning Post identifies the set as Celine Spring/Summer 2023 and the boots as the brand's Verneuil jodhpur boots, and ties the look to the Gala des Pièces Jaunes, the charity concert organised by Brigitte Macron. Women.com describes the same outfit with "a black turtleneck, tights, and calfskin boots".

The tights are sheer black: from the photo, around 20 denier, our reading. Their brand has not been credited. It is the most practical look on this list: a black collar at the top and a black boot at the bottom, with the leg in between in the same black, only lighter.

Hold-ups and leather shorts: Louis Vuitton (March 2024)

At the Louis Vuitton Womenswear Fall/Winter 2024-2025 show in Paris, on 5 March 2024, Lisa wore a long jacket embroidered with multicoloured flowers over a white cropped top, black leather shorts and black stilettos, with a gold monogram clutch. W magazine called what she had on her legs "sheer thigh-high stockings", and the photos agree: at the top of the thigh there is a darker, opaque band. These are hold-ups, not tights, in black at around 15–20 denier (our reading). Neither the brand of the stockings nor that of the outfit was credited in the sources we read.

Fur coat, tights and knee boots: the Alter Ego pop-up in New York (March 2025)

On 6 March 2025 Lisa opened the New York pop-up for her solo album Alter Ego at the Chelsea Walls Gallery. Over a grey ombre dress by Wiederhoeft, as credited by Women.com, she wore a long, shaggy faux fur coat in a pale lilac, with sheer black tights and black knee-high boots. The tights look like 20 denier from the photos, our reading again, and their brand has not been named.

It is the winter version of the Paris look: a long, light-coloured coat over a short dress, and the black tights joining the hem to the boot so the leg reads as one line.

The monogram: Louis Vuitton at the Met Gala (May 2025)

For her first Met Gala, on 5 May 2025, on the theme "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style", Lisa wore Louis Vuitton: a short, fitted black lace jacket that glitters under the lights, a matching bodysuit, and sheer black tights woven with the house monogram, with black stiletto pumps and a monogram bag. Vogue Philippines described "the fashion house's unmistakable logo splashed across an impeccably tailored jacket, bodysuit, and hosiery".

Part of the look was made with the American artist Henry Taylor, whose portraits were embroidered into the bodice, as Vogue Philippines wrote. Online, some claimed one of the faces was Rosa Parks; a representative of the artist told Complex that the figure "is not Rosa Parks, but one of Henry's neighbors".

The tights are the only pair in this article with a credit, to Louis Vuitton, though the house has not published a product name. From the photos, they are around 15–20 denier, with the monogram flowers in a denser black: our reading.

The tights: what we know and what we don't

Only one pair is credited: the Louis Vuitton monogram tights of the Met Gala. For the others, the sheer black of Paris and New York and the hold-ups at the Louis Vuitton show, the brand has not been named. Every denier figure in this article is our reading of the photos, not a figure from Lisa or her stylists.

Why it works

Lisa's clothes do the talking: stripes, embroidered flowers, fur, sparkle. Her legs stay quiet. Sheer black is the one constant, and that constant lets the rest change without the look falling apart. Even at the Met Gala, where the tights carry a logo, the logo is tone on tone, black on sheer black, so it reads as texture before it reads as branding. Logo legwear has come back on the runway too, as Gucci showed with its GG tights for Spring/Summer 2027.

How to wear tights like Lisa

• Sheer black, 15–20 denier. It is the weight she comes back to. If you are unsure which number to choose, our denier guide explains the difference.
• A short hem, something covered on top. A turtleneck in Paris, a long coat in New York, a tailored jacket at the Met: the short skirt or shorts are balanced by a covered top half.
• The same black from tights to shoe. Jodhpur boots, knee boots, stilettos: always black, so the leg does not break at the ankle.
• Hold-ups only with something to cover the band, or on purpose. At Louis Vuitton the band shows below the shorts; it is a choice. For everyday, tights are easier.
• One logo, kept tone on tone. If you try monogram or patterned tights, keep the pattern the same colour as the base and the rest of the outfit plain.

From a Celine collar to a Louis Vuitton monogram, the brands change around her, and the sheer black on her legs stays where it is.
