Garment District - Fabric / Lace - NYC - HELP!

I'm going to attempt going to the garment district tonight after work to start looking for the lace for my dress.

I'm completely clueless, and don't know where to start.

Anyone have any suggestions?

TIA!

Not only do I second Lace Star but you'll find the exact fabric for your dress. They have pictures of Monique dresses and the fabric they're made with inside. They are pricey, FYI.

I'm going there tonight after work, they close at 6, so hopefully it's successful. I'm hoping to get a sample, so that I can bring it to my dressmaker and in turn her use her connections and 'hook it up'

Cool! Well, you'll definitely find it...I can almost guarantee it! Heck, I found hand embroidery from India with silver thread! You can get anything in the District! Good luck.
