History Main / ProperTightsWithASkirt

* Sen Yarizui from ''LightNovel/BenTo'' wears tights with her school uniform. In a setting where she has to fight for the titular object in a supermarket, at least she knows how to be modest.

* ''LightNovel/DateALive'': Kurumi has tights with her school uniform, but the properness she presents is only a façade.

* Utaha Kasumigaoka of ''LightNovel/HowToRaiseABoringGirlfriend'' wears tights with most of her outfits, is the top student of her class, and doesn't get into trouble.

* ''LightNovel/{{Shimoneta}}'': Oboro wears a white pair of pantyhose beneath a full-length pleated skirt, in order to conceal the fact that he's crossdressing as a girl. It's [[JustFollowingOrders part of his job]] as head of Tokioka Academy's [[MoralGuardians 'Decency Prefects']] and as Anna's bodyguard, because Anna's father groomed him to think and [[ProperLady act as a female.]]

* Asuna Yuuki from ''LightNovel/SwordArtOnline'' has this with all of her outfits in reality, including her school uniform. Of course, she comes from a traditional family and is a NiceGirl.
* ''LightNovel/TrappedInADatingSimTheWorldOfOtomeGamesIsToughForMobs'': Angelica Rapha Redgrave wears tights in her Holfort Academy uniform (red in the light novel, black in the anime). She is the daughter of a duke, heiress to a noble house only below the royal family itself, thus fits the {{Ojou}} type (when her temper doesn't get the best of her).
* Sayumi Takanashi from ''LightNovel/WhenSupernaturalBattlesBecameCommonplace'' wears tights with her school uniform, was a perfectionist in middle school, and comes from a well-off family.

* In ''Webcomic/{{Rain}}'', the title character favors this while wearing her school uniform even though the other girls don't. This is partially due to her naturally shy personality and partially due to the fact that she's a UsefulNotes/{{transgender}} girl who wants to draw as little attention to what's under her skirt as possible. Also the author [[https://www.deviantart.com/jocelynsamara/art/TV-Tropes-Meme-259878935 knows]] that this trope applies to her.

* Yui Hirasawa from ''Manga/K-On'' for the most part.

** Her successor, Shion Uzuki from ''VideoGame/{{Xenosaga}}'' also wears brown tights under her Vector Industries uniform. This goes to show you that she's an AllLovingHero and a NiceGirl to boot. Her friend, MOMO, also qualifies with her main outfit in Episode III, and like Shion, she's a NiceGirl.

* Tomoe Tachibana from ''LightNovel/AbsoluteDuo'' wears black tights with her school uniform, making her look more elegant compared to the other girls. Also, she's polite, friendly, and very helpful, especially towards her partner Miyabi.

** The OriginalGeneration from ''VideoGame/PersonaQ2NewCinemaLabyrinth'' Hikari wears this in-game.

* Fran of ''Manga/FrankenFran'' wears a knee-length skirt with opaque black tights under her MadScientist white lab coat. This is partly to emphasise her modesty and lack of sexuality, while still being feminine.

This style of dress is particularly common in {{Anime}} with the {{Ojou}} and YamatoNadeshiko. Compare with ModestyShorts, which prevents {{Panty Shot}}s for the ActionGirl who wears a [[DangerouslyShortSkirt microskirt]] in action scenes. Contrasts with ZettaiRyouiki, which are usually employed to instead enhance the fanservice of the outfit, highlighting budding sexuality.

* In ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'', the artwork for [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles2 Mythra]]'s Spirit added black tights to her bare legs in order to meet Japan's CERO rating for the game, since her dress was [[DangerouslyShortSkirt dangerously short]]. This bit of censorship ended up actually liked enough - even called an improvement for some people - that the version of her outfit with the tights was added to her game. Likewise, she keeps them on as a playable character.

This style of dress is particularly common in {{Anime}} with the {{Ojou}} and YamatoNadeshiko. Compare with SkirtOverSlacks, which occurs when pants of some description are added to an already modest skirt in order to convey shyness or {{tomboy}}ishness, and with ModestyShorts, which prevents {{Panty Shot}}s for the ActionGirl who wears a [[DangerouslyShortSkirt microskirt]] in action scenes. Contrasts with ZettaiRyouiki, which are usually employed to instead enhance the fanservice of the outfit, highlighting budding sexuality.

* Due to the various items of clothing available in ''VideoGame/PokemonXAndY'' - and later ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' (the [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Generation 7]] [[VideoGame/PokemonUltraSunAndUltraMoon games]] didn’t include tights) - you can dress your character this way if you so desire, if you’re playing as the female trainer.

does nothing to draw attention away from her legs.

* ''VideoGame/MarioParty'': Princess Peach wore white tights under her trademark pink dress during the N64 era. Of course, it was only visible to the naked eye during her twirl animation under most circumstances--the best place to spot it in real time would be during the intro cutscene in ''1''.
