Tulle is a lightweight, open, net-like fabric that is usually starched. It is a machine-made lace, mechanically woven, unlike traditional handmade lace.
Tulle is a classic fabric for making wedding dresses (veils, skirts, sleeves, bodices or waistbands), but it is also used in dancers' dresses and tutus, among others.
This light and transparent fabric has a rough, mesh-like texture and provides elegance, romance, and sophistication – an irresistible combination in any garment. It is usually used to add volume to the piece, and the more pleated it is, the more color intensity it will have.
The tulle skirt is an icon of current fashion. Many celebrities from cinema, the fashion world, or artists have walked the most important red carpets in the world, stealing the spotlight with this garment. As a recommendation, combine tulle skirts with plain tops.
More and more wedding guests are incorporating tulle pieces into their headpieces, combining them with other materials such as fabric flowers, rhinestones, or feathers.
