Like nude [1], lace has an elderly connotation. Alas, designer Miuccia Prada hated the fabric, so she decided to take on the big challenge of forming her entire Fall collection [2] out of it. Genius. And let me assure you, this isn't your grandma's lace [3].

A brilliant start is incorporating lace into your wardrobe via legwear, like these Fogal Lace Tights [3] ($47). Imagine what a welcome change they could provide to an entirely black ensemble. But don't stop at tights, embrace lace all over. Tops, dresses, skirts, shoes — the lacier the better!
