Net & Laces

Net is an open mesh fabric, while lace has fine decorative patterns, usually with a scalloped edge. Both are sheer and are used as overlays or accents.

Designers use them for gowns, lehenga dupattas, bridal veils, overlays, lingerie and trims.

Check the hole size, stretch and edge finish. Stiff nets give volume to skirts, while soft nets and lace drape better over the body.

Sheer fabrics are best hand-washed or machine-washed in a mesh bag on a gentle cycle, then dried flat. Press with a cool iron on the reverse, and use fine needles and a small stitch length when sewing.

Choose a lining fabric in a matching or skin-tone shade, such as satin or crepe. The lining shows through the pattern, so test the colour. See our Satin collection.
