Devilishly difficult: between eighteen and twenty tons of cast iron looms are required to produce lace weighing approximately twenty grams per meter. It must be a devil of a job to watch over 5,376 bobbins working simultaneously on the loom.
"The devil made me do it": what you say your when your husband asks you just how much that couture dress was. But I and RARE vintage want to play the devil's advocate: Tell your husband it is vintage and cost a fraction of the original price. "Oh to hell with it, you look incredible" your husband might say in that case.
And here, my vintage friends, is a bit of heaven: Valentino haute couture in detail. A match made in heaven. I know you will remember that Carine Roitfeld wore this recently to a dinner honoring Mario Testino and it was like manna from heaven. A perfect fit: so divine.
Fun Fact: Marescot is the one and only producer of lace for the haute couture.
