Leggings checked black and white

The black and white checkered leggings are ankle-length women's leggings, printed from waist to hem with diagonally oriented black and white diamonds in a harlequin pattern. They are intended for women going to a costume party or disco party who want to give their legs the graphic diamond pattern of a harlequin. Under a short dress, a long shirt, or a clown dress, the checkered leggings remain visible from hip to ankle.

Diamonds, sizes and fabric of the leggings

• You can choose from sizes S-M and L/XL.
• The leggings are made of 100% polyester.
• The dark diamonds have a slight shine, while the light diamonds are matte.
• The diamonds are diagonal and run across the front, the back, and both legs down to the ankle.
• The washing instructions are: do not wash, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, do not iron, and do not dry clean.

Where the harlequin diamond of the leggings comes from

The pattern of diagonally placed diamonds comes from the harlequin, the playful servant from the Italian commedia dell'arte, whose costume consisted of diamond-shaped patches. In two contrasting colors, that diamond has evolved into a permanent hallmark of clown and jester looks. At a costume party or disco party, the leggings work with the same contrast as eye-catching party pants under a plain top.

What face paint and accessories turn the checkered leggings into a harlequin look?

A white base on your face with a black diamond or tear around one eye and bright red lips immediately turns the checkered leggings into a harlequin look. White gloves and black patent pumps keep the colors in balance, and a small hat or a red collar provides one color accent. If you are going to a disco party, then combine the diamond pattern with large black sunglasses and silver earrings.

Choose the black and white checkered leggings in your size and showcase the harlequin pattern at your next costume party.
