Lace has long been synonymous with romance, sophistication, and that touch of old-world charm. So, grab your favourite cup of tea (or glass of bubbly, we won’t judge!), and let’s explore the intricate beauty of lace together!
A Brief History of Lace: From Royalty to Runways
First things first, let’s talk history! Lace has a rich and fascinating history, dating back to the Renaissance era when it was a symbol of wealth and status among European nobility. Fast forward to today, and lace has become a staple in bridal fashion, adorning gowns with its delicate patterns and intricate designs.
Chantilly Lace: A Dance of Softness and Romance
At Yemi Shoyemi, we have a deep appreciation for the enchanting allure of Chantilly lace. Hailing from the historic town of Chantilly in France, this lace style has captured hearts with its fine craftsmanship and intricate designs. Known for its lightweight and delicate nature, Chantilly is non-corded and is able to be used as a base and a main fabric. Chantilly lace adds an element of dreamy elegance to bridal gowns. Our Dahlia dress features exquisite Chantilly lace, creating a soft and ethereal look.
Alençon Lace: A Symphony of Floral Delicacy
At Yemi Shoyemi, we have fallen head over heels for the captivating allure of Alençon lace. Originating from the town of Alençon in France, this lace style has adorned the gowns of royalty and nobility for centuries. While Alençon is a corded lace and more defined patterns, its intricate floral motifs and delicate detailing have long been a symbol of romance and sophistication in bridal fashion.This bespoke wedding dress on our beautiful bride, Bunkem, showcases the beauty of this lace, with its intricate patterns and scalloped edges.
Why Lace? The Allure of Timeless Elegance
So, why do we love lace so much at Yemi Shoyemi? Well, besides its undeniable beauty, lace has a way of adding a touch of romance and femininity to bridal gowns. Whether it’s the unique ability Chantilly lace has to capture the essence of a bride’s romantic spirit or the floral patterns in Alençon lace that evoke a sense of whimsy and femininity in every bride, lace has the power to transform a gown into a work of art. Chantilly and Alençon come in different patterns so the only difference is the threading.
