It's almost impossible to judge veil colour accurately from a designer dress photo — lighting, editing and screen settings all change how it appears. Designer colour names aren't reliable either: what one brand calls ivory, another calls white or off-white.
We offer two shades:
Off-white — our palest shade. A soft, clean bridal white with very little warmth or creaminess.
Ivory — warmer and creamier. Best suited to gowns with a soft or traditional ivory tone.
This style is offered in three shades:
Off-white — our palest shade. A soft, clean bridal white with very little warmth or creaminess.
Ivory — warmer and creamier. Best suited to gowns with a soft or traditional ivory tone.
Champagne — warmer still, with a soft golden tone. Pairs well with champagne, blush or warm-ivory gowns.
This style is offered in ivory only — a warm, creamy shade best suited to gowns with a soft or traditional ivory tone.
Off-white is shown alongside in the image for reference, so you can see how ivory compares.
This style is offered in off-white only — our palest shade, a soft, clean bridal white with very little warmth or creaminess.

If you are still not sure you can order samples; compare them in natural light against your dress.

Mantilla veils are single tier veils that sit just back from the hairline or at the crown of the head. A comb is hand sewn to the underneath of the lace, and mantilla veils have no gather in them. For comprehensive styling advice, read our wedding veil guide.
Yes, you can personalise this veil with your wedding date and initials. Add this veil to your shopping bag and then add custom veil embroidery from our veil personalisation collection. Add initials, dates, handwriting, flowers and more.
Our finger tip length veils are 122cm long, ballet length veils are 150cm, floor length veils are 200cm long, church length veils are 250cm and cathedral length veils are 300cm. The choice depends on your dress style and personal preference—longer lengths create more drama whilst shorter lengths offer easier movement.
Proper storage is essential for preserving your mantilla veil's delicate lace and tulle. If you need a way to store your wedding veil, please see our veil bag and hanging clip. This will help maintain its shape and protect the intricate lacework for years to come.
Mantilla veils, sometimes called Spanish veils, are distinguished by their single tier design with no gathering and beautiful lace edging that frames the face. They sit elegantly at the hairline or crown with a hand-sewn comb attachment. If you'd like to explore more about veil styles, please get in touch with our team.
