Other colors are also used to decorate pillowcases or bedspreads. Wide tapes stand out nicely against the background of cotton fabric and add to its aesthetic value. Narrow laces are used especially in the clothing industry. A typical application is the finishing of dresses, shirts and blouses.

Translucent windows with a lace insert diversify the appearance of clothing and add to its originality.
