Chantilly Lace

It’s no secret that I have a weak spot for border prints…but a vintage border print masquerading as eyelet lace? That is definitely something I can get behind. I love the concept of art imitating life imitating art, and this might be one of the most beautiful pieces of vintage art imitating floral printed lace that I ever did see… I tend to operate under “vintage rules”, which is that I will do minor tailoring or serious repair if it means saving a dress from the trash heap, but I try to preserve the integrity of a vintage garment wherever possible. I also “try” to leave well enough alone when a dress won’t fit...
