This is amazing, I've been looking to purchase a veil for my wedding for months now, and recently just decided to attempt to make my own, and your video is perfect for what I'm hoping to make myself! you are a life saver!!!

[@micro-babe]

I always wanted to make my own veil. And I found out capes are a thing for bridal and I've been obsessed. So I think this is exactly what I need!

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Cape veils are so beautiful - I'm completely obsessed with them too! Have fun creating your own 🙂

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

This is the first in a little series of cape veil tutorials. I'll be showing you some alternative styles and techniques in the other videos. (ps sorry some of the footage is blurry - I think my camera was having a hard time focusing white on white!)

[@ezenachukwunkiruka1903]

Well explained. Please can you teach is cathedral veil

[@saffiregem5820]

What a great way to recycle a veil to a cape!

[@KikiDikiDoo]

I love these, I plan to have a cape veil and would love to do it myself. This video was super helpful! Can I suggest maybe working with the tulle over a darker surface? So its easier to see where the tulle gathers while you're sewing it 😅

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

Thank you. Yes - I will definitely find a better way to film white tulle in the future. It's hard when I only have a white desk and light carpet! I'll figure something out though. Glad to hear the video was still helpful for you though despite not being able to see it properly.

[@amandas27]

I wanted to make a shoulder cape for a costume and I spent the last 2 hours trying to figure out what it's called and how to make it. Finally stumbled across your video. Thank goodness for you

[@rivenhart1771]

Thank you for this! I just found out my dress will not be ready in time for my wedding in three days. I had to get a whole new dress off the rack and can't find a veil in-store that suits it. So I'm going to make one of the draping cape veils!

[@Alice_Walker]

So lovely and so approachable. You are a great teacher!

[@sonyaLparks]

Thank you for the detailed description on how to get that curve. I’m about to do a cathedral veil with blusher and made a mini one for practice and it didn’t come out as rounded as I wanted so I’m grateful for your tutorial. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@ritalopes1513]

Wonderful tutorial! * . * Thank you so much!!! I'm looking forward to start making my own cape veil!!

Hi Vicky, thank you for sharing this with us, I really appreciate it. I just wonder what length should I get for a cathedral length cape veil? Thanks very much!

[@grubkidd]

[@Ladytanyahyde]

This is so informative and easy to follow, thank you! Is there any way to add a hood on to one of these, do you think? :-)

[@nahidshokati2073]

Hi thanks for helping this is for hair or shoulder?

[@landyng6365]

Advice wanting wing veil for string straps how would I keep it on the dress? Thank you

[@peggyriordan9857]

I really like how these turned out and it gave me ideas I can use in the future. I was wondering though..On the veil with the hair clips. Aren't they going to feel scratchy against the brides skin? I am wondering if adding some slightly padded fabric to the backside, covering the sharp edges, but with a cut so the clip part could still go around the straps might help cut down on the scratchiness?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

I've never found them to be scratchy, but you can definitely add something to the back if you'd like to. Thanks for watching 💖

[@veescouture7503]

[@wompol7117]

can you do a tutorial on adding a lightweight cape to formal long dress to help cover upper arms for we mothers of brides/grooms?

[@kendralanae659]

im so aware that this video was posted 4 years ago but could you make this with Organza as well?

[@karinefoster.8963]

What kind of fabric is this?

[@user-dl3us8rp1s]

Did you cut the tulle where the drape is or does it automatically lay how it is supposed to?

[@laurelinmn3137]

What kind of tulle do you use? I can't find any that is soft enough to drape nicely. It's all so stiff!

[@kaylawhitsitt3611]

What if you are attaching to a long sleeve dress? What type of attachment mechanism should be used?

[@ranin9903]

how many tulles I need for the second cape veil ?

[@bluedragonfly391]

I want to make my own wings veil because I cant find cheap one with very soft tulle material and most importantly I want to make it less bulky because of my thin straps. 1. What is the name of best tulle that doesn’t get wrinkles easily and not stick on each other? 2. Any idea how to make it look small on the anchors? Cutting 1/2 as wide each top end? Would that cause them to rip easily?

[@AutisticBeauty]

Do you have a link to where I can buy the clips?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

You should be able to find the little hair clips in craft or fabric stores. I buy mine from Spotlight in Australia. The shoe clips are the Bluette brand from France. I buy those on etsy.

[@hilarystauber8512]

@@RockstarsandRoyalty What size Shoe Clips do you use?

[@RockstarsandRoyalty]

@@hilarystauber8512 I use the Bluette brand of shoe clip. They come in either a single or double clip. You can use either.

[@Burnerbaby]

This is absolutely perfect. I’ve been looking at cape veils and they’re expensive so I want to make my own. This is the best diy video I’ve found. Thanks for this!! Great video.
