I don't remember any actress playing Miss Marple wearing lace, but 
according this quote I found, she did.

"Miss Marple made her first appearance in The Tuesday Night Club 
<http://agathachristie.com/story-explorer/stories/the-tuesday-night-club/> 
-- a short story published in /The Sketch/ magazine in 1926. Here she is 
described as a Victorian relic of a bygone era, with a black brocade 
dress, very much pinched in around the waist. "Mechlin lace was arranged 
in a cascade down the front of the bodice. She had on black lace 
mittens, and a black lace cap surmounted the piled up masses of her 
snowy hair."  She appears in a total of 12 novels and 20 short stories."

This story is one of 13 short stories published as collection under "The 
Thirteen Problems".
