It hose to be perfect
Irish-designed hosiery brand Andrea Bucci has unveiled its most fashion-forward collection yet, exclusively at Dunnes Stores.
Renowned for its Italian craftsmanship and attention to detail, the brand is taking leg dressing to a new level this autumn/winter with a collection boldly fusing fashion with function, bringing catwalk-inspired trends, statement textures and innovative hosiery technology to every wardrobe.
The Andrea Bucci Autumn Winter 2026 collection ranges from barely-there 10 denier styles to luxurious 200 denier thermals, with something for every look and occasion.
Following catwalk trends and celebrity favourites, cable-knit hosiery takes centre stage. Crafted in an organic cotton blend, the miniature cable design creates a fashionable 150 denier appearance. Polka dots remain a key trend, with 20 denier styles available in cherry, brown and black, while polka-dot diamond tights offer a stylish alternative. For a touch of sass, 30 denier black back-seam tights are perfect for party season.
For everyday fashion fun, 3D animal-print leopard tights in brown bring statement style to the legs, while chunky rib tights, 40 denier semi-opaque styles embellished with crystal diamante and delicate fishnet florals offer further ways to transform an outfit.
The premium floral fishnets feature a soft, easy-to-wear finish with a sheer-to-waist construction.
At the heart of the collection, 10 denier Barely There, opaque and semi-opaque styles feature innovative 3D Lycra hosiery construction, with Lycra fibre knitted into every row for multidirectional stretch, a smooth uniform appearance and enhanced durability.
As temperatures fall, Andrea Bucci delivers an extensive selection of opaques in 30, 50, 60, 80 and 100 denier appearances. New for the season, Velvet Opaque 80 denier styles offer a sumptuous finish in an array of winter shades, including black, navy, dark brown, burgundy, crimson blush, charcoal, chocolate brown and navy dusk.
For extra-cold days, 200 denier thermal opaque tights feature a fully fleece-lined interior designed to help retain body heat. A soft brushed lining provides insulation and a cosy feel against the skin, delivering warmth without compromising on style.
Completing the collection are practical knee-highs and ankle-highs, available in both plain and fashionable designs, perfect for wearing beneath trousers.
From subtle sophistication to statement-making designs, Andrea Bucci Autumn Winter 2026 transforms hosiery from an afterthought into the finishing touch.
