THE BARELY THERE VEIL
You have splurged on the dress of your dreams only to realise that it would look even more fabulous with a veil - you didn’t really want one but now you kind of do… It’s a simple dilemma to fix as shown so beautifully at the Erdem Spring 2023 show. The barely there veil was all over his runway, delicately and elegantly draped across various outfits from coats to dresses.
Taking inspiration, brides can forgo expensive veils and opt instead for a drape of the finest mesh. Find a seamstress to finish the edges and you have the desired look and effect. Sometimes the very simplest forms are the most effective and this could be one such time. Add a headband on top or ask a stylist to carefully make an opening to slide clips or flowers into for extra decoration or style statement if required.
Alternatively embrace the beauty in the simplicity, layer it on and go.
