Lace – delicate and romantic!

Lace is a fabric that makes women look very feminine and sophisticated. And for those who like it I have good news – it is no longer strictly for eveningwear. You can wear it daily and to work.

The fall catwalks were rich in lace, from Milan, Paris, London and New York. Lace is popular in all shapes and forms, from lace-covered purses and shoes, to lace dresses, skirts and even coats.

As it’s said in the Daily Mail’s article

You probably have to live in a sewer not to know that lace is a crucial story this season.”

Of course, it is slight exaggeration but somehow it is true as we have seen plenty of lace in collections by Prada, Balmain, Derek Lam, Peter Som, Roberto Cavalli, Givenchy, Valentino, Versace and many others.

Miucca Prada described lace as the most significant material in a woman’s life that accompanies her from birth to death. The couturier confessed that she never really liked lace but wanted to see if she could make it modern by taking the old connotations away. And she could!

She’d found a piece of lace in her studio and had an idea to revive this old-fashion fabric by using ultra-modern shapes. As a result, lace was used in almost the entire collection. And it looks really great, sharp and exquisite with an antique feel, from layered lace to transparent outfits in on-trend sculpted shapes.

Lace fabrics used in creation of fall/winter collections come in various tints: black, brown, bronze, blue, and silver. This season’s designs take on architectural proportions with lots of volume and bold styling.

All these outfits are a far cry from the delicate and girlie images of the past. We have to forget about delicate lacy lingerie textures that used to be so fashionable in our grandma’s times. This season’s lace is heavy and tough, pretty similar to the texture of rope.

When choosing to wear lace you should keep in mind two basic things: steer clear of wearing lace from head to toe, it can look tacky, and keep accessories to a minimum.

Lace is delicate, romantic and mysterious. Besides, it keeps us right-on-trend this season. So, dear ladies, go for it and find a garment that will make you look magnificent!
