Lace is one of the materials that have made a dramatic comeback in the fashion scene. From being associated with being old school and something what a grandma would prefer, lace has now become one of the most sought after materials, and is considered right in the line of silk and satin. It is very feminine, romantic, and luxurious. It has come a long way from being only used in lingerie, and now high end labels such as Dior, Dolce and Gabbana, Valentino, and Michael Kors incorporate lace into their designs, making them more elegant and sophisticated. It is sexy and sweet, and even pastels as used in Dior designs, or a strong black shade like used in Valentino, can instantly glam up your look. Even the celebrities like Angelina Jolie are choosing lace to be the fabric of their red carpet looks. For those who find high end labels a bit too heavy on their pockets, they can choose designs from River Island, H&M, Marks & Spencer, Asda, Free People, and others to update their wardrobe with the hottest lace looks. Along with beautiful cocktail numbers and pleated lace skirts, accents of lace are also being used on handbags and shoes.
