Thank you and I know you'd look fabulous! The piece I'm wearing is a statement headpiece called "Petal" that is part of my AW14 collection. It is a hand-beaded piece attached to a beaded headband.

Thank you Jess! I'm happy to hear that! The nail polish I'm wearing is from CND-Shellac and I think it's called Lilac Longing.

Hi Ann-constance! You can give the comb a test run before stitching it to the birdcage veil. I would place the comb in the hair by pushing it curved side up towards the back of the head and then reversing the direction (curved side down in the normal position) and sliding the comb towards the front. This back and forth motion usually secures the comb to loose hair. Usually, hairpins are used to further secure the veil on both sides of the head once the comb is in place. Another trick is to use two bobby pins positioned like an overlapping "X" in the hair where you intend to position your comb. Next place the comb teeth through the bobby pins to help lock the comb in place. The comb would cover the bobby pins and the netting would cover the comb. If these comb trials still to not work out for you then you can stitch your birdcage veil to a covered bandeau. I personally am not a fan of alligator/crocodile clips because they are not comfortable for me. I hope this long response was helpful. Let me know how the comb trial works out.

Hi! I try my best to sew rather than use glue with most of my projects. Is it possible to sew the veil on to the rhinestone comb with invisible thread as opposed to gluing it? I personally like the versatility of wearing the birdcage veil with different adornments. So I would make the birdcage veil with the comb as instructed and then just slip your rhinestone comb behind it. Later you could adorn your veil with flowers for a different look.

Hi Priscilla! This is a Z Malan original piece we call "petals", it is a delicately hand beaded headpiece wired with glass beads and Swarovski crystals. Please visit our website www.zmalan.com for that headpiece and many more. Also email us at info@zmalan.com. We are looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Bethany! The measurements are 9" for a 1/2 face veil and 18" for a full face veil. Those are the most popular widths for the Russian / French netting. I hope this helps...

@@zmalan7604 I believe what she meant was, when cutting the net with a 18" net, you still use 5 " on the bottom and 5 1/2" on the top? Or these measures change? Thank you very much for your video =D
