In Victorian times ladies varied their wardrobes with lacy accessories; neckpieces, cuffs, bows, etc. Neckpieces were, by far, the most popular; designed to meet differing necklines, tastes and pocketbooks. Basic shapes, called collars, lappets, jabots, dickeys, scarves and capes appeared in endless variations.
Lace, ruffles and embroidery combined to transform the plainest ensemble. The same simple dress could be worn with a French-lace trimmed ruffle for shopping downtown or to a formal social occasion, accessorized with a matched set of point de Venise lace lappet and cuffs.
The concept strongly revived with the advent of the 1950s sweater girl. Colorful silk scarves and white cotton Peter Pan collars added character to the universally-worn pullover. Consider the sweater-and-skirt uniform worn by both Marilyn Monroe and June Cleaver. Individuality counts!
Today's styles incorporate details from the best of fashion eras. Vintage and Victorian accessories will add unique charm to your wardrobe. Imagine what a froth of Victorian lace could do for your favorite top; how you could go from office to dinner with the quick addition of a lacy collar or lappet. Your own, one-of-a-kind, fashion statement can be created with just a piece of antique lace. |
