    Like the name, this colour is sexy. Thigh High is a gorgeous, blue based wine red. Dark and vampy whilst still being a clear red shade, this type of colour is classic, elegant and extravagant....

    Like the paint on an extremely expensive car :) Very subtle shimmer, only visible in the right light. Two coats is perfect... It's very similar to Bordeaux in colour, just different because this...

    Thigh High is a stunning deep wine red with subtle red shimmer. Coverage is pretty good - one coat is almost enough, but not quite.

    I absolutely love vampy burgandy/red colours, so it was no wonder I was drawn to Thigh High, which fits that description perfectly. This rich, burgandy/red shade is described by Essie’s website as...

    Thigh High is a really pretty red along the same lines as OPI's I'm Not Really a Waitress and Sinful's Airy. INRAW is a little darker, IMO, and not as shimmery or complex. I change my polish...

    This is the perfect blue-based, medium-red, with a red/silver pearl. Not really what I would call vampy exactly, it's not bright either. It is a wonderful subtle red that would wear perfectly...

    Elegant shade of dark red (ruby) with cool/blue-tones. Truly classic and not too vampy. Wonderful for my pale PPP hands. Perfect Essie quality and applies lovely. With After Sex one of my favorites...

    Great classic deep, vampy red. Mostly wear it on my toes. It looks really sexy with a pair of black or white peep toe pumps, at least my boyfriend thinks so.

    This might be my favorite red ever! Thigh High is a deep red, darker than mid-tone, but not at all blackened or vampy. It's a true, blue-toned red with very subtle monochromatic shimmer. The...

    Love this shade. Great for pedicures, but I'll occasionally do it for a mani as well. A beautiful dark red with a hint of shimmer to it, less shimmery and less bright red than Scarlett O'Hara. ...

    This is a gorgeous color--just not particularly unique. It actually looks great with my neutral/cool skin tone, and I sort of like the subtle shimmer that alomst looks like a creme a lot of the...

    I agree with the other reviews. Pretty deep red color that has some shimmer in the bottle, but looks like a cream on. Before purchasing I compared it side by side with Bogata Blackberry, one of...

    In the bottle, this shade is gorgeous. I saw it for 20% off at Trade Secret, and I was enamored. I got it home, did up my nails-- it just looks kinda like a dull dark red. Needed 2 coats of...

    This is a sexy, deep, cranberry red that looks super shimmery in the bottle, but loses some shimmer on the nail. This is not the first time an Essie color has disappointed me from the bottle to...

    Thigh High is as others have described. It's a darkened red with some slight berry tones. I find the color a shade or two darker than OPI Bogota Blackberry and with less plum/purple tones. When...

    Thigh High is a deep, creamy, blue-based ruby with high sheen. (That pretty much collectively sums up the reviews posted below, and is completely accurate). The paint appears to have shimmer in...

    On my quest to find a lookalike for Nars Chinatown that won't chip like mad, I picked up three red Essies, including this one. My quest must continue since Chinatown is creamy and Thigh High is...

    In the bottle this is a deep ruby red with a lot of shimmer/frost. However, on my nails it looks like a creme unless I'm looking at it in the sunlight or bright lights. It's a pretty red overall,...

    Thigh High is part of Essie's fall 2005 Walking Tall collection. I agree with the other reviewers: this is a deep, dark true ruby red with a hint of shimmer in sunlight/bright light. In normal...
