The major department stores often carry a good range of colours, but if you are wanting 40 or 70 denier you may need to order them as they class as Winter stock and they'll be restocking (no pun) for spring. John Lewis (Nottingham anyway) had some great colours in a couple of weeks ago. Our side use bottle green 70 denier Charnos tights, BUT Charnos are very small-fitting, so you need to get the next size up. You could try thecostumestore.co.uk as I had a browse around there once and they say they stock a good range.

I love Danskins (wear them quite often as posh tights) but the colour range most shops carry is fairly limited (eg toast, light toast, black). And they're £10+ per pair over here!
