Lace

Lace is an openwork fabric patterned with open holes in the work, made by machine or by hand. The holes can be formed via removal of threads or cloth from a previously woven fabric, but more often open spaces are created as part of the lace fabric. Lace-making is an ancient craft. True lace was not made until the late 15th and early 16th centuries. A true lace is created when a thread is looped, twisted or braided to other threads independently from a backing fabric.
Originally linen,silk,gold, or silver threads were used. Now lace is often made with cotton thread. Manufactured lace may be made of synthetic fibreA few modern artists make lace with a fine copper or silver wire instead of thread.

Types of lace
There are many different types of lace, and various methods for producing it - so many that we won't go into them here. The long and short of it is this: it's now less about the stretch, allover lace, and more about antique-style lace. Fabrics that look like a more traditional needle or bobbin lace (even if they're machine made). Generally, go for a wider net, a more unique pattern, a sturdier fabric - rather than a thin stretch lace.




 
PERCEPTIONS...

 Lace is beautiful.It's gorgeous. It looks exceptionally good combined with other fabrics or just on its own.It can be molded in whatever style you want it to be. Child’s perception about it can be a beautiful style. A teenager might claim it to be the Flirty outfits where as adult takes it as both beautiful and Flirty. Girls adopt it and wear it for the reason to look attractive, charming and alluring among others. Lace looks elegant both ways whether it is combined with other stuffs or used as its own. It looks decent when one choose single item in Lace and do not overburden it by selecting too much. it gives a sophisticated looks to one who is wearing it. The lace has always been the symbol of a feminine look and behavior . Some peoples believed lace was flirty. Now being an adult I think it is both beautiful and flirty, but it is also romantic, feminine and totally chic. All depends on how you wear it .
