The Bridal Veil

طرحة العروس

This subject does not seem new, and perhaps you will say: the meaning and the purpose of wearing the white veil are one and the same, so why weary the mind over it?... But this veil, which the bride wears for so short a time, undoubtedly deserves some attention; I say this, first, in view of the importance of an occasion that a woman rarely meets twice...

And then because the thoughts of brides and of the mistresses of elegance are fixed to a very great extent on the wedding gown, and no room is left to consider the veil... for all the stir it makes.

And by way of amusement we shall present to you, Madam — or Miss — these novel fashions in wedding veils. On which of them has your choice fallen, or will it fall?... Bearing in mind that certain Hollywood stars have already worn them before you, to assure you that your choice will be a success.
