DIY idea: lace dresses

 

Dolce&Gabbana lace dress

 Since i put my eyes on Dolce&Gabbana spring 2011collection i fell in love with those cute lace dresses. Perfect for summer (worn with a sunkissed skin) the lace dress is a classic in a romantic,chic wardrobe. Spring crochet magazines are filled with patterns to make one of these but crafting one takes time and summer is already here! Lace fabrics can be expensive so a cheap alernative can be to use lace curtains or embroidered tablecloths as fabric. Don't even think to touch your grandma tablecloths embroidered with love (i know that grannies don't do this anymore, they wear miniskirts and botox!),have a look in your local market instead i'm sure you'll find what you're looking for.

Per l'estate Dolce&Gabbana hanno declinato il vestito in pizzo in tante romantiche versioni. Perfetto per la stagione estiva, indossato sulla pelle dorata, il vestito in pizzo è un classico. Le riviste di uncinetto sono piene di schemi e proposte ma realizzarne uno richiede tempo e l'estate è già qui! Le stoffe di pizzo possono essere costose e una alternativa meno costosa possono essere tende in pizzo e le tovaglie ricamate usate come stoffa. Per carità non tagliate le tovaglie della nonna ricamate a mano con amore (lo so che oggi le nonne indossano minigonne e botox),cercate invece nei mercati locali,sono sicura che troverete quello che cercate.

Wearing granny's curtains

Last year trends and the future ones (spring 2011) propose the lace dress. These lace dresses (well dresses,long shirts) have fringes at the end. The Gucci propose for spring 2011 is particular.This fabric is made of macramé that is a technique to make texlile knotting the thread. It's really time consuming so really precious. Looking in the bottom drawer of your grandmother i'm sure you'll find some towel or curtain decorated that way.
