In the age of conveyor production, handmade items are a real rarity, and it is they who attract customers, contributing to the personalization of their wardrobe. This season, the trending crocheting technique comes to the rescue.

Translated from the French, "croche" is a small hook. This method of knitting lace first gained popularity in the middle of the XIX century, which was facilitated by the publication of its detailed description in one of the Dutch magazines. It is worth saying that at that time it was not used to create clothes, but to produce accessories and various decorative products.

Crocheted items reached their peak in demand in the 1970s, the aesthetics of which are now actively returning to the catwalks of fashion capitals. At the spring-summer 2024 shows, designers actively integrated mesh, handmade lace clothes into fashionable images. For example, Alberta Ferretti, JW Anderson, MSGM, Celine, Vaillant and many other fashion houses presented their variants of knitted openwork products.

Analyzing the new collections of Russian and foreign brands, you can find a wide variety of products made in this technique. Designers boldly experiment with the color, size of the grid and its design, and stylists suggest not being afraid to seem overly frank and actively use it to style both casual and more elegant evening looks.
