This beautiful lace is set on a fine tulle base and has a decorative, scalloped edge along two sides. The design does not fill the entire surface of the fabric, so in large formats (full skirts, entire dresses) the result is very elegant. Corded lace makes a pretty edging for a skirt, sleeves, and neckline. The individual design motifs lend themselves to use in applique.
Corded lace is sometimes inaccurately called Alençon. While the two are similar in appearance, there is an elemental difference in how they are made. Corded lace is embroidered on tulle, whereas the more sophisticated Alençon lace is woven as a whole using the Jacquard technique.
Corded lace is an elegant match for bridal gowns, evening gowns, and cocktail dresses. It has a gentle drape and combines well with fabrics that have a similar or crisper drape, such as dupioni, heavy satin or duchesse, or taffeta.
Care
Hand wash this lace only at 30°C. Handle very gently, do not squeeze or wring dry. Do not machine dry. Hang or lay flat to dry. Iron on the lowest setting (synthetics).
Generally, pre-shrinking is needed for linen, cotton, and rayon, but for finer fabrics (light rayon, Tencel and modal) proceed with care – don't use hot water or a hot iron, simply launder the fabric the way you will be laundering the completed garment.
Most of our fabrics are one-time offers that last until they are sold out. However, some more popular items are always restocked or can be ordered on request. As a rule, this applies to notions, where the selection is pretty consistent, but may also include some types of fabric. Look at the product's availability value – it shows whether the goods are available while supplies last, in the core inventory or in a seasonal collection.
The goods in the seasonal collection come directly from our verified manufacturers. We change up the colors on offer from season to season but fabric quality is always constant. For large (wholesale) orders, colors that have been sold out can be reordered individually.
Limited editions are fabrics of exceptional quality or patterns that have been designed and produced exclusively under the Sartor brand. As a rule, they do not repeat and are therefore only available while supplies last. Don't miss your chance to own a true original.
