  • Types Of Lace

    There are various types of lace available, and heavier guipure and Chantilly lace are two of them. For lingerie, an extensive range of lace types are used. One of the most common and preferred among them is stretch variety.

    According to people aware of lingerie work, lace lingerie is comfortable and sexy. However, it is not easy to work with lace. It can be with some tips and tricks.

 

  1. All-Over Stretch Lace

    It has many great features, such as four-way stretch, wide, scalloped edge, variety in weight and density, and lightweight. These are some good things about the lace type that make it a good lingerie material.

    A problem with all-over stretch lace is that it tears easily. An ideal way to solve the problem is backing it with sheer stretch mesh. This technique adds stability to the lace which further makes it easy to design bras and panties with a higher waistline.

    How to work: It’s pretty simple! Take a pattern piece from the lace and the mesh. After that, baste the pieces together. During the process, make sure to pay attention to the lace side. It should be facing out.

 

  1. Scalloped Stretch Lace

    Featuring two scalloped edges, the lace is well-known for its array of widths. Here, you have to take care of the lace’s motif. They come in two different patterns: symmetrical and directional. Symmetrical is easier to cut than the directional.

    How to work: In the case of symmetrical patterns, you just need to fold the lace over. On the other hand, you need to get a piece of lace that can accommodate a pattern piece. Now, put the remaining piece against the prepared piece. In this way, you will get mirrored pieces.

 

  1. Stretch Lace Trim

    Popularly known as an ideal replacement for elastic, stretch lace trim is smooth to work with. In addition, it can be used on any panty line. Some of the most interesting features of stretch line trim include its variety of styles and less visible panty line.

    How to work: In the case you are using a lace with straighter edge, make sure to serge the edge before the stitching. If it is scalloped lace, then ensure that you are omitting the serge step.

 Conclusion 

Lace lingerie is an amazing clothing piece that can make a woman feel special about her. All you need to do is find the right lace and sew it in the right way. We hope our guide helps you understand lingerie lace types and ways to work with them.
