Mantilla Veil – Chapel Veil

February 20, 2012 By roxanne88

This mantilla veil has a plain cut edge with Swarovski crystals and white pearls staggered along the edge. A chapel veil that is a lightly beaded veil makes a beautiful transparent accent. Mantilla veils are not gathered (in most cases) notice how smoothly it lays on her head. We offer a comb or a 2 inch straight pin for attaching a mantilla veil, but this bride wanted to share that bobbi pins work best for her. Take a closer look, this may work with your hair style.

This mantilla veil is a 67 inch circle of diamond white bridal illusion.

February 3, 2012 By roxanne88

This chiffon veil makes a dramatic mantilla veil. It is a cathedral veil 120 inches long. Mantilla veils are flat non-gathered circles or ovals. This mantilla is an oval because silk chiffon only comes as wide as 42 inches. This chiffon veil is made of diamond white silk chiffon with a ribbon edge, 3/8 inch wide diamond white silk ribbon. A Swarovski teardrop crystal is sewn every 9 inches apart all around the silk ribbon edge. A 4 inch clear plastic comb is hidden under the ribbon edge for attaching this cathedral veil.

Shoulder veil with Blusher: a blusher veil

January 27, 2012 By roxanne88

This champagne veil is a shoulder veil that was a custom request for 4 tiers. it was worn as a blusher veil with many layers in the back. This champagne veil is made of tulle with a plain cut edge. Since shoulder length veils tend to look full, we made it in the 54″ sheer fullness on a 3″ metal comb. With 4 layers it still had plenty of fullness.

Tier 1 is 18 inches, tier 2 is 16.5 inches, tier 3 is 15 inches and the blusher is 16 inches. Our champagne bridal illusion is usually a good color match for a champagne veil. In this case it needed to be a bit darker, so we worked with the bride and found tulle that matched.

This is the same veil in all 5 photos. It’s 120 inches long like most cathedral veils. It’s made of diamond white bridal illusion in medium fullness and traditional shape gathered at the top on a 3 inch clear plastic comb.
