[lace] Duchess of sussex wedding veil

2018-05-22 Thread Susan
Thank you for further clarification on veil construction Tess!  That’s not good 
news for the couturier industry.  I was under the impression that LeSage moved 
production to India where skilled hand embroidery could be produced at a much 
lower cost, hence my speculation that they could have been involved.  Makes me 
wonder how much more can actually be saved by doing appliqué on tulle? That’s 
really fiddly & involves lots of snipping & embroidery unless they used water 
soluble stabilizer. Oy!  Sincerely, Susan Hottle USA

Thanks Annette!  Your information could mean that LeSage was involved.  I think 
there was/is a business relationship with Givenchy (& other houses) for 
tamboured work. If memory serves, I think they created the “Sunflower” jacket 
for Givenchy back in the day. If my memory is faulty, perhaps someone will 
correct my recollection. Sincerely, Susan Hottle USA
