Weather it’s a hipster or a floor sweeping gown; black lace seems to be popping up in just about every woman’s closet. And truly, there hasn’t been a year of fashion without black lace being a trending topic on the runways. The same goes for fw2016; black lace is having a moment again. Yet, as fashion evolves, this fabric too got a style update. This fall it’s all about dressing up in black lace as designers like Roberto Cavalli and Balmain are introducing some of the most artful, delicate yet dramatic lace evening dresses. Floor sweeping (Gucci, Alberta Ferretti) and highly decorated. With cut-outs (Roberto Cavalli) and asymmetric sheer panels (Valentino). Given touches tulle (Roberto Cavalli) and shiny ruffled satin (Balmain). With extra long loose sleeves (Roberto Cavalli, McQueen). Serpents (Gucci) and flowers (Rodarte) adding some dark/romantic touches. Black lace should no longer be hidden as sexy lingerie, it deserves a spot in our festive wardrobe section. To be worn on extravagant nights that require a fashion statement to be made, both dark and seductive.
