Lame is often used to create vivid clothing, making it ideal for theatrical wear, dance costumes and dressy evening wear. It also has several other uses, such as the creation of non-clothing items such as tablecloths in home decor. Lame will sometimes be used to create the trim on formal wear, and such as bridesmaid's dresses. It is also used to create decorations and craft projects. Because lame is so bright, it can be a good idea to contrast it with dark or neutral colors, such as black and white for gold or silver lame
