On Trend- Prom- Lacy Illusion

Lace & Illusion

Two  unique prom trends, but it's hard to find 

one without the other.
We all know what lace is, but what exactly is Illusion?

Here's what Wikipedia had to say about it...

   "any garment of clothing made with lace, mesh or sheer material that allows the wearer's body or undergarments to be seen through its fabric. See-through fabrics have been featured heavily on high-fashion runways since 2006. This use of see-through fabrics as a common element in designer clothing resulted in the "sheer fashion trend" that has been predominant in fashion circles since 2008.^[1] See-through or sheer fabric, particularly in skin tone (called "nude") colors, is sometimes called illusion, as in 'illusion bodice' (or sleeve) due to giving the impression of exposed flesh.^[2]"

Think about the different fabrics and details in your dress when you're faced with

the many choices you have for your corsage.. 

 since Illusion is sheer- 

 choose a sheer ribbon- sheer black, off white/nude or choose your dress color

Sheer ribbons come in most colors and if you can't find the exact shade, don't worry,  a

shade darker or lighter will look great along with the rest of the flowers and accents. 

Don't forget the lace..

you can add lacy metal leaf accents....

or incorporate lace using a lace bracelet...
