A refined alternative to the traditional veil, this silk crepe scarf brings a modern, understated elegance to a wedding look, without asking a bride to give up the feeling of a veil altogether.
Key Features
• 100% silk crepe, bias-cut for a natural drape and gentle structure
• 2.5m (100") long and 25cm (9") wide
• Clean finished edges, natural white, slightly opaque
• Handmade in Paris, France
Cut on the bias, the silk falls with a soft, matte drape rather than holding a fixed shape. Drape it over the shoulders, wrap it once around the neck, or tie it in a loose knot at the back, and wear it again long after the wedding.
Styling Inspiration
• Draped over both shoulders, for movement in photographs
• Wrapped once around the neck, ends left loose
• Tied in a soft knot at the nape, under an updo
Why Silk Crepe
Silk crepe carries more weight than silk chiffon, with a matte, slightly opaque finish rather than a sheer one. It holds a knot or wrap without slipping, and reads quieter in photographs than a sheer fabric such as the one used on our Mirage silk chiffon cape.
Why Brides Love It
• A minimalist alternative to a veil that will not overpower a gown or an updo
• Timeless rather than trend led, and wearable again after the wedding
• Handmade in small batches in our Paris studio

This bride scarf is made from 100% silk crepe, cut on the bias rather than along the straight grain. A bias cut lets the fabric fall and move with the body instead of holding a fixed shape, which gives the scarf its fluid drape and slightly opaque, matte texture.

How is a silk bridal scarf different from a veil?
A silk bridal scarf is a single length of fabric with no comb, gathering or attachment point, worn draped or wrapped rather than pinned to the hair. A veil is cut and gathered onto a comb and worn at the back or crown of the head. The scarf offers a plainer silhouette without the volume or face-framing effect of a veil.
What dress styles does it suit?
It suits minimalist and slip-style gowns as well as more traditional silhouettes, since the scarf adds a soft layer of movement without competing with the dress. It works as a plain alternative to a veil for brides who want less volume at the head and shoulders.
How long should it be worn, draped or wrapped?
At 2.5 meters, there is enough length to wrap it once around the neck with the ends left long, or drape it loosely over both shoulders. For a single knot, gather it toward the back so the length falls down the spine rather than the front.
Is this the same fabric as the Mirage silk chiffon cape?
No. This scarf is 100% silk crepe, which has more weight and less sheerness than the silk chiffon used on the Mirage cape. Choose the crepe scarf for more coverage and a quieter drape, or the chiffon cape for a lighter, more sheer movement.
