I am wearing a simple silk charmeuse sheath and would like to find a veil that goes with the simple lines and vintage-like feel of the dress. Also one that is small enough that it won't have to be lifted from my face. I have seen a couple pics of french netted bird cage veils and just recently of russian tulle veils, however, I can't seem to find any photos of the latter. If anyone has any pictures of this type of veil and/or suggestions of places that make them and french netted veils that would be really helpful.

Dear lulu:

It is my most humble opinion that the veil shorter than your hair will break the flow of your look. I think you can do better.

I would be very interested in seeing what this Russian"tulle" veil looks like. I do not know of Russian "tulle" veils -- Russian veiling, yes. You can see a sample photo of the Russian Veiling attached here.
I would be happy to work with you to coordinate a headpiece/veil for your wedding. When is your wedding?

Congratulations!
