ELIZABETH DICKENS VEILS

Here is a selection of Wedding Veils that we stock at Prettymades - So when you try on your wedding dress you can also see which type of veil would compliment your chosen wedding gown
  • FLAT TAPE  -  A 5mm wide tape stitched to the veil edge. Softer and more pliable than Russian Braid, It lends itself to scallop edges
  • RIBBON EDGE  -  A bias of ribbon available in a 5mm or 10mm finished width.  Sewn onto the edge of the veil
  • RUSSIAN BRAID  -  A cord of approximately 3mm sewn onto the edge of a veil
  • EMBROIDERED EDGE -  A chain stitch used to embroider many variations of patterns on veils
    Self-colours and metallic available
  • OVER SEWN EDGE  -  An over-locked edge which is available as a straight edge or in various sizes of scallop
  • PEARL EDGE  - A string of pearls which is sewn onto the edge of the veil
  • WIRE EDGE  -  An insert of monofilament placed inside an over-sewn edge to give a 'curly' effect
  • DIAMANTE SCATTER  -  A  ‘crystal AB’ diamante is used as standard on the veils
  • COMBING  - The standard method of combing is ‘half combed’. This means there is a gather at the comb with a ‘drop’ on each side

WEDDING VEIL MEASUREMENT

Veils are made from either a circle (up to and including 108") or an oval (over 108")

The size includes the ‘train’ (the longest part) and the ‘blusher’ (the shortest part, sometimes worn over the face)

These two lengths are added together to give the total veil size

E.g. 45" train and 27" blusher = 72" veil
       

If you have a specific length needed we will be happy to get the veil made especially for you
Edgings can be changed to suit your gowns and scattered pearls or crystals added as liked
Veiling is also stocked in metallic gold or silver
If you have a special dress colour, we will do our best to match it for you
