"The Sofia was inspired by the tradition of Spanish mantillas — the delicate lace, the oval drape, the sense of ceremony. We've reimagined it in silk-style tulle and French eyelash lace, handmade here in our Bath studio." — Sarah, Founder

Mantilla veils are single-tier veils with no gathering, creating a smooth oval drape over the head and shoulders. They sit at the crown or just back from the hairline with a hand-sewn comb, and the lace edge frames the face beautifully. This traditional Spanish style offers timeless elegance distinct from gathered cathedral or chapel veils.
