At a concert held in Los Angeles in early September, Beyonce wore a dress made of Dolce & Gabbana’s Curry Cordelier lace.

This has brought attention to a very French craftsmanship.

One whole French town is proud of it. Beyoncé took the stage at the Renaissance World Tour concert in early September wearing a black Dolce & Gabbana dress. The most notable detail of this dress? It was the world-famous Curry Cordry lace. The lace’s manufacturer, the Northern French company Solstiss, was delighted with the fashion, commenting on Facebook that they were “very happy to see the talented Beyoncé wearing our lace.” Also in 2016, at the MTV Video Music Awards ceremony, 42-year-old singer Beyoncé paid homage to lace by wearing a white dress.

The Soul of French Chic

The official Curry Cordry Lace website states, “Deeply associated with the soul of French chic, lace is inseparable from elegance and femininity, sublimating the curves of the body and the delicacy of the skin through the designer’s talent.” The history of this lace dates back to the 19th century, with two historic birthplaces, first in Calais and then in Cordry. As a result, the Nord-Pas-de-Calais area became a major region for the production of lace. In fact, Calais is home to the International Lace Mode Center and Cordry to the Cordry Lace Embroidery Museum.

The label “Calais-Cordry Lace” certifies that it is produced on River Lace looms and, according to the official website, according to a unique thread combination process based on more than 200 years of history. What makes it unique? In 1837, the Jacquard weaving technique, an improvement on the River Lace loom, was introduced. Since then, it has been possible to apply patterns to a plain tulle background. This method was perfect for producing lace that perfectly mimicked handmade bobbin lace. Today, 80% of River Lace looms are concentrated in Calais and Cordry.

From Beyonce to Marilyn Monroe

Beyoncé is not the only celebrity who enjoys dressing in this clothing art: at her 2011 wedding, Crown Princess Catherine wore a dress made of lace by Cordry-based Sophie Alette; three years later, Amal Clooney honored this extravagance at her wedding to George Clooney. honored the lace. Michelle Obama also showed off her mastery of the craft by wearing a Cordry Lace dress on Easter Sunday 2009. This lace reputation is nothing new. As evidence, Marilyn Monroe was also enchanted by a cordelier lace strapless dress at the premiere of the 1953 film “How to Marry a Millionaire.”
