Inspirety Fashion - Sexy Lace?

Added 2011-07-05

If I say lace you might think of it as a symbol for the feminine look and something sexy.

Wikepedia’s definition of lace is in a technical point of view “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.”

This season the fashion scene is much about lace. Above you can see a feminine expression by the Chicmuse.


Alix, the Cherry Blossom Girl, seem to like her lace skirt from Free People.



Jacqueline's blog the Fashion Snag is filled with feminine, sexy and beautiful lace inspiration, here are a few samples.

"Crochet and lace shorts are everywhere so it is not surprising that they are the first pieces I pick out to wear in the morning."



"I wore this crochet button down shirt by Of Two Minds that was expensive even on sale.  I fell for it because it has such a bohemian flair and it is a really unique piece."



"It is also a little short, but you only live once and I have plenty of time to wear maxi skirts when I am older.  This dress is the perfect little bohemian piece to have around for casual parties or a night out with your friends."



"Little black dresses like this one from For Love & Lemons always make me happy.  This dress is called lulu and features a mesh zipper back and a strip of mesh in the front."
