FASHION UPDATE
Hark, its spring!

 
The change of the season means its finally time to revitalize your wardrobe with this season's hottest trends. It was a hot favourite for the Spring/Summer 09 shows at New York Fashion Week and designer Miuccia Prada declared that she was "obsessed" with it. Lace is ultra-feminine and adds an air of lovely romanticism to any outfit: which is why it has been a classic since the Victorian era! From the gothic all black lace look to dresses and coats made entirely of lace to lace sleeves, such as those shown by Elie Saab at Paris Couture Week - everything goes. Lace dresses also look gorgeous worn with contrasting tights for a modern and day-wear twist, or layered with different pieces. The key is to make sure it is incorporated into your outfit and not overdone:
 
and we do caution you to not use it in the done-to-death lace on the hems and cuffs of kameezes. Fortunately enough, lace is available everywhere from shops to Sunday Bazaar (shopkeepers at Sunday Bazaar have quite the joy in priding themselves at having sold entire thaans of lace to designers) so do pick up lace at your next shopping trip!
