Lace it up for the New Year

Lace has had a comeback this year, the last time lace was
big, it was during the 80s when Madonna had everyone wearing lace gloves.

Now black lace is appearing as a sexy peek-a-boo textile in a dress, and it is being used with a solid color nude or black to add that feminine touch.

Lace has been one of the most intricate and time consuming textiles to make because it is hand made. The material has been used for women undergarments, now it is seen as an outer garment.

This is definitely another fashion trend that should give you a good idea for a party dress to bring in the New Year.





This tube-top dress by Type Z can be found at Zappos.com priced at $69. The designer uses the two textiles in an angular direction, which also helps the wearer emphasis her best features, and direct the viewers eyes to them. The use of nude is great since it helps layer the lace making it pop out.












This Calvin Klein black lace dress can be found at Bluefly.com for a special price only found on the website, $89. The dress is a spaghetti strap V-neck, 100 percent polyester. The top-half insert is made of a floral lace. The dress is accessorised with a black skinny belt which gives an Empire waits-line to the wearer.
