Mantilla Wedding Veils

The Mantilla wedding veil is an oval veil shape, which is designed to be worn flat on the head. There is no gathering in the width of the fabric.

The traditional mantilla, also known as the Spanish mantilla worn at the top of the head, secured with a comb sewn flat to the fabric, troupe clips, or a hairpins.  A Mantilla is one layer, this veil style cannot be worn over the face.

Design features– The mantilla veil has an edging that will draw up the side of the veil. Some times clients can find this look a little over powering near their face and decide to have a mantilla effect veil.
