Thank you for the close ups, Manny:-). I see now, they have a gorgeous texture, how sad I didn't see them in my stores:-(.
Yes, I am 171cm, and hourglass, but cannot find tunics long enough. My thights are wide and muscular on front from the hips down to some inches above the knees, weird to explain, but kind of reminiscent of my long years practicing classic ballet in my youth:-).
I don't know how to explain better how and where are they shapely, but I'll post a pictie of my DD to see better on her. I was bummed when recently observed she has them, too:-)-and now I think it is about posture or tension in the legs, too.
Of course, having them when thin, is completely other thing, at 48 and overweight is another:-). I always feel like having to cover them(few inches above knees)-but so hard to find the perfect length. My pencils, and regular dresses are all to the knee length or lower, but I would like my tunics (worn with substantial leggings) only a tinny bit shorter, if that makes sense.
By the way, I will further encourage you to try faux leather jeggings. Mines are as thin as the regular ones and have a subtle shine, so do not expect to add any bulk, or so. And if the length of your tunics is perfect(as they all are)-they will only show half of their length so lesser impact, than you imagine!:-)
Cheryle, Debs from Oz and many other here have them with inserts of faux leather only and perhaps even more substantial, if you would like them so.
ETA. Oh, I see now in Carole's thread, mine are not pleather or faux leather....just leather look, kind of Dashielle has! OMG, was it a big mistake, to name them so???
