Lace and TrimsLace is an openwork fabric, patterned with open holes in the work and it is either made by machine or by hand. The holes on the lace can be formed by removing the threads or cloth from a previously woven fabric, but more often open spaces are created as part of the lace fabric. Lace making is an ancient craft, and true lace was not made until the late 15th and early 16th century and it is created when a thread is looped, twisted or braided to other threads independently backing fabric. Lace is made from different fabric materials, linen, silk, gold or silver threads were used before. But today, lace is often made with cotton thread, and it can be also made of synthetic fibre when it is manufactured. Trims or trimmings in clothing and home decorating is applied ornament such as gimp, passementerie, ribbon, ruffles, or, as a verb, to apply such ornament. Trims before on garments and furnishings make it more expensive and high- status. The abundance of trimming is a characteristic of mid- Victorian fashion. Both lace and trims can transform any piece of fabric to an exquisitely elegant piece.
