You can see the sash (near hand on model left) and there is an ellipse between it and the dress, but you see that the top of the lace is standing proud and away from the fabric (in this case, a sheer overlayer that is of a chiffon nature). It has the appearance one creates with an illusion of the eye, which is a diffused quality over the solid underlayer. (There is much playing with techniques in which sheer over which solid, viewed up close or at a distance, fluid vs. more structured in the design elements, creates the ideal objective. The edge of it shows it is a machine lace that has been appliqued/applied to the sheer, but on first viewing and in the smaller picture, it appeared that it could have been machine embroidered on the sheer layer).
Best, Susan Reishus *** "I think that the black sheer by her hand is part of the tail of the sash." Brenda *** "I looked quickly before seeing your post, and saw that near the left hand of the model (viewer's right), the sheer pulls away from the underlayer and the embroidery is on the sheer." Susan Reishus *** "I'm not so sure the gold "lace" is on the black sheer. http://www.vogue.com.au/fashion+shows/galleries/pre+fall+2011+carolina+herre ra,11953" Robin - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
