I chop up tights and wear them as tops – I’m known as the Pantyhose Queen but they look good | The Sun

A FASHIONISTA has revealed that she turns her old pairs of tights into tops.

Gabriela Recalde is known as the Pantyhose Queen for her impressive handiwork with scissors and tights. 


All it requires is some tights you no longer want and a sharp pair of scissors.

Gabriela started by cutting the tights above the crotch to create a bandeau-style top.

She put this on and used the stretch of the tights to pull the top over her chest and stomach.

Then, she cut a horizontal slit underneath her boobs and cut the tight legs in two.

Using one of the tight legs, she folded it in half and knotted it around the slit.

The two pieces left dangling from the knot were used to tie the top up behind her neck, creating a halter-neck style.

The stretchy nature of tights means the halter-neck section pulls the slit upwards and creates a cut-out in the middle of the top. 

Gabriela dubbed the style a “pantyhose crop top” and assured viewers it was easy to recreate.
