Colette is made from soft netting, a light, diamond-mesh tulle traditionally used for birdcage veils and vintage millinery, rather than the stiffer nylon netting found in many mass-produced versions. The mesh holds its shape so the veil keeps its gentle curve over the eyes or cheek rather than collapsing flat. It's mounted on a discreet silver comb sized to tuck into an updo, a low bun, or hair worn down. Hand-made in our Paris atelier.

What is a birdcage veil, and how is it different from a full-length veil?
A birdcage veil (or voilette) is a short veil made from fine netting, worn angled over part of the face or tucked to one side, rather than falling down the back like a traditional veil. It's a vintage-inspired alternative for brides who want a veil without the length or volume of a full cathedral style.
How should I angle the veil when I wear it?
Colette can be worn angled across one eye for a dramatic, retro look, or centered and pulled slightly back for a softer, more classic effect. Both ways work with the same comb placement.
Will this suit a short hairstyle or an updo?
Yes. The comb is designed to tuck securely into an updo, a low bun, sleek short hair, or hair worn down, so it isn't limited to one hairstyle.
Does the netting scratch or feel stiff against the face?
No, French netting is softer and finer than the nylon netting used in many birdcage veils, so it sits gently against the skin rather than scratching.
What if I need to return or exchange it?
Returns and exchanges are accepted within 14 days of receiving your order. See our Refund Policy for full details.
