If you’re not a fan of veils, these dazzling looks might just change your mind.
3D floral embellishments are all the rage now and they’ve gone from decorating wedding dresses to this ethereal veil from Paolo Sebastian’s wintry Fall 2016 collection. For more visual impact, have your veil sport the same embellishments that are sewn on your wedding dress.
Can’t decide between a veil or a dramatic flower crown? Wear both!

Going for drama? Try Zuhair Murad’s elaborate headpiece and veil look from his Spring 2013 bridal runway that matched his equally extravagant gown.
A black polka dotted veil evokes drama and looks striking against your white gown.

There’s nothing like pretty coloured floral embroidery to add a charming Springtime feel. We love how the embroidery on the veil matches the gown but you can also try a pastel hued dress like a lovely soft pink or blush to amp up the romance.
Carolina Herrera Spring 2016
For a romantic beach or garden wedding, try this dreamy look from Reem Acra. For your gown: A lightweight number (think tulle and chiffon) with floral or lace details.

Naeem Khan’s intricate crowns of twigs, shells and stars gives the veiled look a regal and enchanting flair. With this much detail, go for a slicked back hairstyle like this one, to your look from getting too busy.

Match an effortlessly stylish low ponytail with a boho chic dress, then add a netted veil with a sparkly hairband for extra oomph. Alternatively, try a romantic braided updo or a tousled bun.

Nothing spells glamour quite like gold and this all-gold ensemble from Zuhair Murad will have all eyes on you. If you’re going for a white gown, get one with gold details that match your veil.

At Sottero & Midgley’s Spring 2016 show, veils took on a whimsical vibe with tufts of tulle and clusters of white blooms. We love this veil with a floaty tulle ballgown or midi dress for a fun bridal look too.
