Women's purple knitted leg warmers with ribbed trim

Bright purple, knitted and deliciously slouchy around the calf: the purple leg warmers immediately evoke the atmosphere of an 80s aerobics studio. Purple leg warmers are tubular, knitted leg pieces in purple that you wear over your lower leg and ankle. They are intended for women and come into their own at an 80s party, a disco party or a tacky party.

Features of the purple leg warmers

• The color is a deep purple over the entire leg piece, without print or lettering.
• The knitted rib pattern runs vertically and gives the leg warmers their typical ribbed structure.
• The top and bottom have a tighter ribbed cuff, causing the middle section to drape loosely on the leg.
• In the photo, they reach from just below the knee to over the ankle, worn on bare legs with high heels.
• The model is unisex in shape, but is shown here as part of a women's outfit.

Why purple and not a neutral color?

Purple is one of the colors you see in 80s fashion in aerobics outfits, terrycloth sweatbands and shiny leggings. While dark, neutral-colored leg warmers are mainly warm and inconspicuous, purple adds a pop of color to a black or gray outfit. So choose this purple model when your outfit is otherwise understated and you want one striking block of color. If you are going for a complete neon color explosion, purple will stand out less. Leg warmers themselves originally come from the world of dance and ballet, where dancers kept their calf muscles warm while warming up.

How to wear the purple leg warmers at a party

Pull the leg warmers over tights or leggings and slide them down as far as they go so that they drape loosely around the ankle. At a dance evening or in a parade, they will stay in place better this way than pulled up tight. Combine them with an oversized sweater, a tutu or a tracksuit in the same style. If you are going to be on your feet for a long evening, choose flat sneakers instead of the heels in the photo.
