Almost everywhere, there is a way to shop from home using your computer; in this case - _www.qvc.com_ (http://www.qvc.com) Today, there is a very reasonably priced lace dress (cover up for a swim suit?) by Isaac Mizrahi. If you select A288082 to view, it is possible to see a video presentation even when the dress is not being shown on your TV. I cannot comment on the quality until I receive the black one ordered. Am thinking that on my elderly "figure" it will be in better taste to wear lightweight black tights, and a pair of black patent leather shoes in the closet will finish off the look. When one goes to a special occasion in the U.S., there is usually a need for a cover up to ward off air conditioning drafts, so I'll pair with a lightweight jacket with sleeves to cover arm "wings". The challenge: How long would it take for you (or even a group) to reproduce this dress - using bobbin lace techniques? I am thinking of those very complex lace designs in some of our lace books!
