TREND WATCH SP10: Tulle

 TULLE
Tulle might be most commonly associated with wedding dresses, but designers have worked the netting into the clothing items for their spring collections. I'm a fan of this trend because I associate tulle with softness and femininity, two things that I usually go for when creating my summer look.



The above set includes a tulle shrug by Lanvin ($1,790). Description via net-a-porter.com:

Lanvin Blanche's sheer ivory tulle shrug with ruched finish and raw trim makes a directional coverup for the modern bride. Wear this cropped sleeve shrug to add a tactile touch of whimsy to a strapless column dress.
The description mentions brides, however, it would also work with more casual items to create a soft, and even whimsical look.
