Lace1 avaIn the 1800s, people of some European countries widely used lace to adorn their clothing, underwear, shoes, and accessories. These pieces were delicate, sophisticated, and looked exquisite. Here is a collection of such garments decorated with lace from 19th-century Europe, particularly France and Russian Empire. They might seem ordinary today, but at the time, not everyone could afford these garments, they were worn by the rich.
