At a Glance:

Colour Black
Fabric composition 82% nylon, 18% elastane
Country of manufacture United Kingdom

Width top of arm: 11" (28cm) stretching to 13" (33cm). Length from tip of little finger to top: 22.5" (57cm) but please note that your arm will shorten the length a little when worn.

Cut to true opera length, they can be worn pulled up the arm for maximum drama, or ruched down for a softer 1950s-inspired feel. The lightweight powermesh hugs the hands while allowing just the right amount of sheerness for a sophisticated effect.

Produced in a British glove factory with over 175 years of heritage, these gloves are more than an accessory — they’re part of a tradition of craftsmanship. The perfect finishing touch for your little black dress or vintage evening ensemble.

Joshua ★★★★★

The powermesh is seriously fine-mesh yet holds its shape perfectly, and the opera length drapes beautifully without bagging at the wrists. I've worn them to two events already and they've survived both without a single snag or tear.

Robert ★★★★★

I was nervous about the length being overwhelming, but these fall perfectly past the elbow and stay put all evening. The English-made powermesh is genuinely lightweight, so my arms didn't feel suffocated during a long dinner.

Brian J. ★★★★★

The powermesh fabric gives these gloves a smooth, almost weightless feel that drapes beautifully past the elbow. They survived a full evening of handshakes and champagne toasts without a single snag, which is more than I can say for cheaper pairs I've owned.
