This week I’m showing you my third beige-ish bra and panty set. This one is the least of the not so basics. It’s actually copper duoplex with a gorgeous sheer lace with black roses. 
As soon as I saw this lace, I put the copper finding kit aside. I knew this bra needed black findings! And I love it. 
And you know I made a matching set, don’t you?
Here again, I had to use that not so perfect cotton Lycra. Still. I think it’s a great looking set. 
It’s interesting that the golden lace seemed to lighten the look of this CL. In the same way, the black lace seems to darken it as well.
What do you think? Is it just a trick of the eye? Or the lace? Does the one pair appear a bit lighter? 
Here is the set together. 
Lastly, here’s a collage of my three ‘beige’ bras and panties. 
It was fun to sew them all together and complete my bra wardrobe for 2023.
What plans do you have for 2024? I’m sure I’ll be making more bras, trying new patterns, and working on some pants fitting.
Happy holidays & happy creating! See you next year.
I love seeing them all together. So, to answer your magical question… I say it depends. If I take in the whole picture, the beige looks lighter. If I focus my eyes on just the cotton lycra, the black one looks lighter.
Thank you! It’s funny, isn’t it? Somehow the lighter lace does seem to make them look lighter.
