The humble veil has come a long way, folks, and today we are here to celebrate it. Gals the world over have been taking the traditional symbol of modesty and transforming it into an expression of personality for quite a while now and we are well and truly here for it. Whether you fancy channelling this into a cape, wings or tradish veil, we believe these lush creations are the single best way to transform your bridal attire into two distinct outfits. Rather like a mullet – business up the front, party at the back. Well, maybe not quite like a mullet but you get the gist.
Here at HM, we like to cover all bases so cue a hefty dose of variety. We have scoured the interwebs to find for you, our dear readers, wedding day accessories that cover all price points, seasons and lengths. Whether you are a minimalist, traditionalist or just a gal fond of a good time, we have you covered. Vintage lovers will adore the capulet style whilst those brides channelling chill are bound to be stoked with Grace Loves Laces’ darlin’ hair buns.
Many of our fave designers don’t just stop with gowns but channel their excess creative juices into lush bridal accessories, so we were sure to include a whole heap. Take Prea James’ Pearl Veil. This beauty is ideal for the feminine bride seeking to elevate her look that extra smidge. Customisable length? You betcha! Fancy a dash of whimsy come your big day? We recommend scrolling down to Kellylin Couture’s sweet floral number. For those amongst us who fancy going all out, Karen Willis Holmes’ Fleur Veil is the level of luxe you deserve on your big day. This babe combines oodles of soft petalled fabric pieces (hand sown, mind you!) with tiny weeny pearls. Oh la la!
