Lezette with Lace Collar
Updated: Aug 9, 2023
Lezette's classic style is further refined with this lovely lace collar. We use View A for the classic puff sleeve, and follow the neckband instructions in View B for the lace collar. We used a delicate lace netting, however you can easily substitute a beautiful Swiss embroidered edging as an alternative.
