Denier is not French for "last"- that's "dernier". Denier is a unit of weight to measure nylon or silk, so is used in hosiery to describe the thickness of the material used. It also relates to the opacity of the material- the higher the number, the less opaque your tights.
1) A unit of fineness for rayon, nylon, and silk fibers, based on a standard mass per length of 1 gram per 9,000 meters of yarn.

2) A small coin of varying composition and value current in Western Europe from the eighth century until the French Revolution.

3) A small, trifling sum

4) Someone who denies something
