So I bought new tights (Melas) and the top keeps rolling down it’s so annoying. They’re not control top and honestly I’d prefer to get control top. My question is if I’m getting control top do I need to get the next size up? Or they won’t roll down cuz they’re control top? I thought that these fit me because there seems to be enough material to pull them up my waist. I don’t want them to be too big and get saggy by the legs. What do you suggest?

I usually go up a size when wearing control top. But that's because I don't like it that tight on top and I'm tall so no issues with it bunching up. If you're on the shorter side I would say stay with the same size so you don't have bunching at the ankles.

I wear Melas, no control top, and they don't roll down. Are you sure you’re wearing the right size?

My guess is that the tights aren't long enough for your torso and therefore are rolling down. You can try buying one pair of the next size up to see if that makes a difference.

I had the same issue last year. I am also short. I found a brand on amazon that has been working for me this year.

Thanks! It’s funny because I looked at reviews for people around my height and I saw someone mention that it rolls down

If they're rolling down, you need to size up.

I didnt find that too be true. Going up a size made them baggy and long. Sometimes the brand doesnt work for the body type.
