Lace pieces typically use polyester or cotton–polyester blends. Many garments include a full lining or a soft cotton inner lining for added comfort and modesty.
Some lace-trimmed items include sensory-friendly construction (flat seams, no tags), ease-of-dressing elements, functional openings for abdominal access, and hook-and-loop fasteners to simplify dressing.
Common details include all-over floral lace, scalloped hems, crochet or crochet-like trims on shoulders or sleeves, outer lace layers, illusion lace on bodices or necklines, and lace accents on sleeves or below the waist.
