Kate Middleton Puts Cluny Lace Back En Vogue

Cluny Lace, in Ilkeston, has seen a massive boost in business following The Royal Wedding.

Lace from the family-owned business has been used in Kate Middleton's wedding dress.

Bridal orders have flooded in.

Sales manager Kate Knight told the BBC: "On the bride's dress it was used on the underskirt and some of our motifs were used on the train.

"It was most prominently on the bridesmaid's underskirts and around their neck and sleeves."

"It certainly puts lace back on the map and highlights that there is a UK manufacturer still in existence so everything's a help at this stage."

The firm was established in the 1760s at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
