QUALITY IN THE FINEST DETAILS

SLOW-FASHION
HEIRLOOM VEILS

Quality in the finest details has always been at the heart of my work - from my time as a costume-maker for Disney and the Royal Opera House, through to today.

​

Each and every veil we create is intended to become an heirloom piece, handcrafted at the highest quality to be passed down to future generations.
 

In a world where ethical consumption is becoming top-of-mind for many of us, it’s one small way we can help brides have their perfect day, whilst being more mindful.

Our relaxed remote process has been carefully designed to ensure that you get exactly what you dream of - from sending you samples, to including an accurate design sketch in your quote, through to sending photos of your pinned veil for your approval before we stitch.

HOW WE WORK 

FULLY BESPOKE DESIGN 

 

From the larger design points such as lace or embroidery, down to how the veil is attached to the comb, each and every element of your veil is decided with your setting, theme and overall style in mind. 

​

​

ONE TO ONE JOURNEY WITH SOPHIE

 

You don’t need to know anything about veils to go bespoke. Sophie will personally work with you to advise, design and help decide each aspect of your veil to create the perfect one-of-a-kind piece, down to the finest detail. 

 

​

ETHICALLY HANDMADE VEILS

 

Our promise is that your veil will be as perfect seen close-up as in overall effect. Even if there’s 3mm of rough tulle backing on your lace, we’ll spend the hours hand-cutting it away in our in-house workroom.

OUR BRIDES

MEIGHAN  |  LAKE COMO

I had a wonderful experience with Sophie creating my dream wedding veil. It was an intimate and wonderful experience from start to finish.

 

Sophie reached out to my bridal boutique to get exact details such as the shade of ivory of my gown and length of train, to match the veil tulle and length perfectly. She sent me tulle and lace samples so that I could select exactly what I wanted. We created an exquisite royal length veil with delicate lace embroidery. Highly recommend her for your wedding veil specialist!

IN THE PRESS

VOGUE ITALIA

For the Chanel gown, the bride chose a custom-made long veil with train from Sophie Raval that featured a gold Chantilly lace trim. Finding the extra-large silk tulle needed to make the pattern was challenging. There was only one supplier in the UK: a Nottingham-based factory, the same one that had also woven Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle's wedding veils.
