How to Get The Latest Take on The Lace Trend


How to Get The Latest Take on The Lace Trend

By Charlotte J Bleasdale




All-over lace was a massive fashion trend in 2010, with the underwear as outwear trend emerging and lashings of black lace appearing on Christmas party dresses. Fashion's love affair with this most feminine of fabrics is not yet over, but as ever, evolves into something fresh and new. Gone is the decadence of winter's gothic heavy black lace, making way for something equally as fabulous, but completely different.

Lingerie looks

Lace is traditionally a key fabric for lingerie, but instead of wearing lingerie pieces such as camisoles and bustiers as outwear, in spring 2011 it's all about feminine dresses and blouses that are embellished with lace the same way that a piece of underwear might be. Bows and floral detailing such as rosettes are key, as are delicate, sheer fabrics that reveal more than a suspicion of skin. Colours are classic and ladylike, from black and cream to powder blue. This style of lace is perfect for the evening, for elegant blouses worn with wide leg trousers or knee-length dresses. Wear with minimal accessories and jewellery to let the lace take centre stage.

Vintage chic

What could be more appropriate for spring than fresh white lace? Tablecloth-inspired lace with large motifs and cut out pieces are being used for feminine summer skirts and dresses, including ruffled styles and babydoll dresses. If you're looking for something a little more sophisticated than cream or tea-stained lace gives more of a vintage or antiqued look. This style fits beautifully with the resurgence of seventies style and is perfect for maxi skirts and maxi dresses. If you can't find what you're looking for in the shops then vintage stores may offer up undiscovered gems.

Primary colour

A brand new take on lace has been dubbed 'poster paint lace'; saturated primary colours used for whole dresses for a really striking look. This trend is not for the faint-hearted but if you want to make a big impact it could be just the thing. From canary yellow to pillar-box red and cobalt blue, it's amazing how different lace can look when it's not your classic black and white. Team a one-colour lace dress with nude or contrasting-colour accessories for an up-to-the minute look that's sure to turn heads. Avoid eighties shapes and stick to an A-line silhouette to keep it chic.

Neon brights

For the fashion-adventurer out there, go really bold with neon lace. Whereas the lingerie or vintage look is ideal for spring, this look is definitely best saved for high summer. It's best complemented with a tan for a tropical look, so why not try it on your holidays? As neon makes such a statement, keep the shape simple and the length lady-like to keep it classy and high-fashion.

Quirky New Lingerie Gift Ideas

Quirky New Lingerie Gift Ideas By Lucy Tomkins There are so many different options when buying underwear for your partner. Naughty - If you're looking for something that's a bit on the naughty side then suspenders are a good option. With a belt wrapping around the waist, often over a pair of knickers, suspenders stretch down and attach to stockings, making a spicy, seductive addition to your lady's wardrobe. Nipple covers, also known as nipple tassels, are a daring, burlesque accessory. Many boyshorts, knickers, and thongs have slits in the bottom, and sometimes include ribbon to tie them shut. Evocative varieties of thongs are simply comprised of lace and a string of pearls. Vintage - For those who prefer an old-fashioned look, a basque can enhance a woman's curves and carve out a slim waist. A basque is similar to a corset in fit, but is commonly longer and comes with shoulder straps. A corset is strapless and sexy, but often stays on with extensive lacing. However, s
