Jeanette from Dreamnette Bridal gave me this lovely two-tier 60’s Style Bouffant Bridal Veil to use with models or when I teach classes. My daughter tried it on and with her hair swept to the side and the high-contrast lighting, it SO reminded me of bridal photos of friends and family from the ’60s!
The Bouffant Veil, which rises above the bride’s head in a cloud of tulle, was popular in the 1950s and early 1960s. It was usually worn with a tiara or a high satin headband. But today’s bouffants are more understated and worn without a headpiece for a cleaner, more modern look. This two-tier veil is an elbow/waist length of 30 inches for both tiers. It is finished with a very delicate pencil edge.
I hope you enjoy this “quickie post”. Let me know what you think about the veil and the portrait. Thanks!
P.S. The lighting was done with a very common light, something you probably see every day. Who can guess what it is?
