No matter how many different outfits you have, if you don’t have a lace piece in your wardrobe, then seriously, you are not from Earth. Maybe Jupiter where they wear humongous teddy coats all year long, but certainly not from this planet.

Toke Makinwa
Bad girl vibes
Lace takes on different personalities. Above we can see how pairing a black lace bustier with leather pants gives off a bold, tough and “bad gyal” in a cool way vibe.
Mihlali Ndamase
Pow wow!
It all boils down to knowing how to combine a show-stopping look. One thing many rookie fashion lovers struggle with is how to create a show-stopper without doing too much. If you’ve had this question cross your mind, this simple take on how to style lace is the answer.
Yamiko
Sophisticated
I absolutely love lace when it comes as a subtle detail. We’ve seen lace be everything but here its simple sleeve addition to this blazer dress makes it even more sophisticated and such a delight.
Ola Adewale
It really POPS!
There are different forms and textures of lace and one of my favourites is the perforated lace. The holes are wider and the detailing, bolder. It’s sort of wild and elegant all at once.
Sai Sankoh
Statement style
There’s a certain exquisite vibe you get when you wear a pretty lace dress. That’s what we can clearly see as Sai Sankoh walks the street in this beautiful flared hemline lace dress. Love how she contrasted the monochrome look with pink stilettos.
Debbs Bjuku
Sprinkle of interest
Even the most uninterested person would find this look interesting. There is so much character in this combination. Wearing a blue lace blouse over a polka dot calf-length skirt – who would have thought the combination would be so refreshing?
