A Few Words About Lace and Its History
Lace is a light, patterned, openwork fabric. It's made by hand or machine from various types of thread, most commonly linen or cotton. It's divided into types according to production method and appearance. Therefore, we can distinguish crochet lace, needle lace, bobbin lace, net lace, tatting, and Tenerife lace.
Where did lace come from? The exact origins of this exceptional material are unknown. The first braided work, still made from thick threads, comes from ancient Egypt. Lace also appears in Greek myths, such as the story of Arachne. This is a tale about a princess and lacemaker who decided to compete with the goddess Athena – patron of women's crafts – for the title of craft mistress.
Another clue to lace's origins is the ancient technique of making fabric geometric cut-outs, whose edges were sewn with intricate stitches. However, fabric resembling modern lace only began appearing in medieval Europe, specifically in Italy and Flanders.
Lace quickly became synonymous with wealth and luxury. Because it was handmade, only the aristocracy and wealthy bourgeoisie could afford it. Interestingly, until the French Revolution, lace was also a permanent element of men's attire! However, since then, men's fashion has abandoned lace in favour of more practical and simpler cuts. Lace elements have been perfectly preserved in women's fashion, where they remain present today.
The fabric's popularity increased after machine production of lace was introduced. This made it cheaper and more accessible to less wealthy parts of society. Currently, most lace on the market is machine-made.
What Can Be Made from Lace?
Lace has wide applications in both clothing and decorative industries. In former times, it adorned grand ball gowns, royal cushions and bedding, parasols, gloves, and even aristocratic collars and cuffs. Lace shawls were also created, as well as doilies and table runners. Over time, this material was increasingly boldly used in lingerie production.
And how does it look today? You'll find lace almost everywhere – on blouses, skirts, trousers, girls' dresses, and even shoes. It's also a fashionable accent in many interior decorations.
How to Care for Lace Creations?
Have you decided to choose an elegant lace dress for girls for a special occasion? Excellent choice! You'll be able to use it for many important celebrations and for everyday outfits. However, for a lace dress for girls to serve longer, you must care for it properly.
How do you wash a lace dress for girls? Hand washing in lukewarm water is recommended, using soap flakes or specially designed liquid. Treat clothes with this material gently. Don't scrub or wring the washing if you don't want to damage the lace elements. It's best to dry flat. However, if you decide to wash such a girls' dress in the machine, choose the most delicate programme, without spinning, at a maximum temperature of 40°C.
And what about ironing? For this purpose, use cotton fabric to cover the lace while using the iron. Vertical ironing with a steamer would also be a good idea.
Who Are Lace Dresses Best For?
Currently, the choice of lace creations is so large that you'll find something suitable for practically any occasion. Both elegant dresses for girls and fashionable cuts in boho or hippie style are available. You simply need to choose different accessories, and the same lace creation will look equally beautiful during an important family celebration and in everyday styling.
Lace creations can be worn by both little fashionistas and teenagers. If you want to choose such a dress for girls, important aspects include:
- natural material that doesn't irritate the child's skin;
- cut suited to the figure;
- appropriate size that won't restrict movement.
