After the bohemian flower crown, here’s a novelty in hair jewelry to add to your wedding hairstyle. Can the chic chainmail effect make the difference?
Paco Rabanne could not have done better. This handmade gold veil straight out of England is both a silversmith’s jewel but also a real jewel to wear on your head on your wedding day without damaging your hairstyle.
Made with recycled metals in the London studio of South Asian designer Rosh Mahtani, this made-to-order piece of jewelry belongs to the special wedding collection from the Alighieri brand, born in 2014. Inspired by her studies of French and Italian at the University of Oxford, the jeweler immersed herself in Dante’s “The Divine Comedy” to create her own jewels without initial training.
This golden veil that would look just as good for Daenerys from Game of Thrones as a model at a haute couture show is not just an editorial piece, however, since it was created especially for brides. It is composed of fine gold chains on which pearls and crystals are added with care. Delicate and romantic from the front on the face, intense and couture seen from the back like a waterfall dressing the bride’s hair, the accessory is simply breathtaking. Advice to wedding photographers, you will never be asked for so many photos with the queen of the day from behind.
Brides looking for a unique accessory can buy the golden veil online for £ 1500 or around € 1745 (it takes 4-6 weeks to make) or rent it for £ 300, or around 350 €, for a period of 3 to 5 days.
Enough to make all the flower crowns, veils, headbands, brooches, barrettes and buns assorted with fresh flowers that we are used to seeing on Pinterest and the Facebook photos of all your friends.
