I have some lace which I bought from ebay that would suit that top. Unfortunately the lace has a unpleasant smell even though I have washed it 3 times and had it hanging outside for days in the fresh air. I'm not sure whether to make something with it and hope the smell goes away or give up on it.

Try spritzing it with vodka and water, then airdrying.  If THAT doesn't work, rinse in white vinegar solution.

Thanks DF , I'll give those remedies a try. I'd like to salvage the fabric if I can.
