Types of Lace Fabrics

Our lace fabric UK collection is carefully selected for dressmakers, crafters, hobbyists, and designers seeking sophistication and style. Whether you're sewing a wedding dress, crafting delicate home décor, or adding an elegant touch to everyday wear, this range includes high-quality options for every project.

Floral Lace Fabrics

Floral lace remains a timeless favourite, lending softness and elegance to any project. These fabrics feature finely detailed floral motifs that work beautifully for bridal wear, evening gowns, veils, and shawls. Offered in classic shades like white and cream, as well as richer tones such as gold, floral lace is adaptable to both traditional and contemporary designs.

Corded Lace

Corded lace offers an appealing raised texture created through thicker embroidered threads. This adds a sculptural quality to the fabric, giving garments a sense of dimension and structure without compromising flow. It’s especially popular for special occasion dresses and couture garments where form and detail must harmonise.

Guipure Lace

Also known as Venetian lace, guipure lace features bold, interconnected motifs without a backing fabric, creating an openwork pattern that’s both strong and decorative. Its durability makes it ideal for statement design elements like collars, cuffs, or full lace panels on dresses. Guipure’s graphic style also lends itself well to crafting striking home décor items.

Embroidered & Scallop Lace

For a more luxurious touch, embroidered and scallop lace fabrics provide intricate stitched patterns with beautifully finished edges. These are perfect for heirloom-quality garments or adding delicate accents to everyday wear. Their fine detailing also suits craft projects requiring a refined, decorative fabric.

Inspiration & Craft Ideas with Lace Fabric

Lace fabric’s versatility opens up endless possibilities. Whether you’re a seasoned sewist or just starting, these ideas might spark your next project.

Dressmaking Elegance

Use lace to create exquisite occasion wear such as wedding dresses and elegant evening gowns. Combining floral lace overlays with materials like silk or cotton allows for contrast in texture and weight, adding depth and sophistication to your designs.

Accessories & Details

Lace isn’t just for dresses, consider crafting scarves and headbands, or adding appliqué trims on bags and shoes. Floral lace trims can elevate camisoles and casual wear, offering a subtle nod to elegance in everyday fashion.

Home Décor Touches

Beyond garments, lace fabrics can beautifully enhance home interiors. Use lace for delicate table runners or curtain panels that gently filter light, casting intricate shadows and creating a soft, inviting ambience.

Creative Crafts

For crafting enthusiasts, lace is a fantastic material for handmade cards, bunting, gift wrapping, or festive decorations. Crochet lace and scallop designs add unique texture and charm to any project, encouraging creativity beyond sewing.

Choosing the Right Lace Fabric

Selecting the right lace fabric depends on your project’s needs. Here’s how to make the perfect choice:

  • Fabric Type: Lightweight floral lace suits flowing dresses, corded lace offers more structure, and guipure lace provides bold, graphic detail.

  • Colour & Finish: Whites and creams are staples for weddings and formalwear, while vibrant golds and deep tones make statement pieces stand out.

  • Material Blend: Cotton-based lace provides softness and breathability, polyester blends enhance durability, and silk lace delivers a luxurious hand feel.

  • Project Purpose: Think about whether your project calls for delicate overlays or durable craft-friendly lace.
