VEILS, unveiled
Veils are an easy way to express yourself. But with so many options to choose from, how do you know which one’s right for you?

The trick to pulling o. this less traditional look is to let Cage veils were the height of fashion in the’40s and’50s, so that makes them the perfect match for retro-inspired dresses like swingy, tea-length gowns, structured sheaths and slinky, old-Hollywood-inspired slip dresses. They’re also a fun way to add a touch of vintage glam to a suit or jumpsuit.
