Romancing with the lace!

Turned more versatile than it was ever, lace is no longer a dressy fabric. Thanks to all the
designers who participated in Spring/Summer 2013. They have changed the way they we see
lace now. From heavily designed to see-through sheers, understated to sultry, brightly hued
to sober pastels, lace took a different avatar at the runway. It is no longer limited to neutral
colours like blacks and whites.

Although the romantic and dreamy lace has been there in trend forever but this time the fabric unleashed the coolness it carries. Its androgynous silhouettes, astonishing shades and never-seen-before accents have made lace a day wear fabric. Intriguing and beautiful, lace is one of those fabrics that tickle our fantasy, the moment we see it. If you too have fallen for the new lace trend then take a peek on how you can include it in your everyday dressing.

Pastel Lace: If you are planning to experiment with lace for day time dressing then opt for a pastel shaded lace. Yes, the pastel shaded lace is no longer restricted to lingerie. Take a cue from Spring/Summer runway trends by designers like Honor, Chadwick Bell, and Tadashi Shoji.

Mesh like Lace: Try meshing lace and adding a touch of androgynous to your lace collection. Mesh skirts and tops with opaque panels in the same colour has become very popular among the fashionista. Mesh has a hide-and-seek element that creates interesting pattern even when it has simpler silhouettes and clean cuts.

Evening Lace: For the after-hour glamour go for lace outfits that have intricately embroidered yet large floral work. Add drama to your evening wear with black lace dress. Take inspiration from designs by Erdem, Dolce & Gabbana, Tom Ford and Christopher Kane’s Spring collections.
