Point d'esprit (pronounced pwan deh-spree) is a finely woven net lace. Most often found in black or cream, it resembles a soft tulle, but with dots woven into the mesh. This novelty fabric can be used to add final decorative touch to your handmade bridal gown, and because it comes in a full-size width, it’s suitable for dresses, shawls, veils, and even formal curtains or tablecloths.
