Luigi 3,636 Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 [quote name='marigold' timestamp='1319809072' post='2328167'] Me too, it's very pretty. I noticed that a lot of the black veils look translucent? Is this artistic license or did veils used to be made of some funny material? [/quote] Yes, many orders had translucent veils, but I don't know the name of the facric - maybe tulle? (I've heard my mother talk about it as a fabric for bridal veils?)
