Stretch lace trim is a specialized decorative textile embellishment characterized by its intrinsic elasticity and intricate openwork patterns. Unlike traditional lace, it incorporates elastane fibers (typically comprising 5-10% of its composition, with Lycra® or spandex being common) or a stretchable ground mesh base, allowing it to recover to its original shape after being stretched, often achieving elongation rates of 150% to 200%. This trim is engineered with a combination of natural fibers like cotton or rayon for softness and moisture absorption, and synthetic fibers such as nylon or polyester for durability, strength, and shape retention.
