Proposal to correct error in description of lace
[edit]There following sentence is incorrect "The traditional Carrickmacross lace-making technique used on the wedding dress was later used on the wedding dress of Kate Middleton... ". The lace on the wedding dress of Kate Middleton was NOT made using the Carrickmacross lace-making technique. This is explained in detail in the recently corrected version of that page[1] . I therefore propose to split the sentence into two new sentences. The first will state that the wedding dress of Lady Diana Spencer was trimmed with antique Carrickmacross lace. (I assume this is correct, although it is a pity no photograph is available to document it.) The second will contrast that lace with the appliquéd machine lace motifs used in Kate Middleton's wedding dress, using a cross ref to the Wikipedia page. (The second sentence will retain the mention of the fact that the groom was Lady Diana Spencer's son etc.)
I invite comment from other editors before making the change.
