Lace is having its biggest moment in years. Pinterest named “Laced Up” one of its top predicted trends for 2026, and It girls everywhere — from Zoë Kravitz to Dakota Fanning — have been spotted in lace slip dresses on repeat. If you’ve been holding onto lace for “special occasions” only, this is your sign to bring it into everyday rotation. Here are 8 romantic, wearable ways to dress to impress with lace this season.
1. Lace Slip Dress with a Tailored Blazer
The easiest entry point into the trend: a soft ivory lace slip dress layered under a fitted blazer. It balances the romance of lace with a little structure, making it office-appropriate or perfect for a dinner date.
2. Lace-Trim Cami with Wide-Leg Trousers
A lace-trim cami tucked into high-waisted wide-leg trousers is quiet luxury with a romantic edge. Add pointed flats or heeled mules to elevate the look.
3. Sheer Lace Maxi Dress with a Slip Underlay
The sheer lace maxi is 2026’s statement piece. Layer a tonal slip dress underneath to keep it wearable, then let the lace do all the talking.
4. Lace Corset Mini with an Oversized Blazer
This is the “Vamp Romantic” edge of the trend — a structured lace corset mini softened (and made office-friendly) by an oversized blazer draped over the top.
5. Lace-Trim Skirt with a Ribbed Tank
Keep it casual with a lace-trim midi skirt and a simple ribbed tank. This combination proves lace doesn’t have to be fussy — it works just as well for a weekend brunch as it does for evening plans.
6. Lace Bodysuit with Denim
For an everyday, off-duty take on the trend, layer a lace bodysuit under a denim jacket with your favorite jeans. It’s the easiest way to wear lace without overthinking the rest of the outfit.
7. Lace-Trim Shorts with a Linen Blouse
Summer-ready and effortless — lace-trim shorts paired with a flowy linen blouse. This is your go-to for warm-weather brunches or a laid-back date.
8. Layered Lace Cami with a Trench Coat
For cooler days, a layered lace cami peeking out from under a belted trench coat feels effortlessly Parisian. It’s proof the Laced Up trend works well past summer.
