Veil is Curling Up, Help!

Veil is Curling Up, Help! 1


Veil is Curling Up, Help! 2

Hi all,
My cathedral length veil, which has a lace trim the whole way round has arrived in the mail. When I put it on it seems to curl up around the edges of where it should sit on the ground and won’t stay sitting flush to the ground. Is this normal? Does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this?
Thanks so much in advance for any ideas!

    I don’t have much (really any) experience with veils so someone else may know better but I would 1. Think to maybe steam or gently iron the lace to see if that helps? Or 2. If that doesn’t help or isn’t recommended for the fabric, could you look into adding something with either double sided tape or lightly stitched on the underside of the lace to weigh it down to prevent from rolling? I was thinking like little jewels, pearls, anything small enough it won’t be seen and something not too heavy that it would weigh down the entire veil but just enough that it would prevent any rolling. Honestly, maybe even just a light stitch across the back of the lace might be enough to stop the fabric from rolling in on itself


    Good luck!

    Steam it. Use a hand held steamer. Or a dry cleaner or bridal shop. There are also veil weights, but they shouldn't be necessary

    Try a streamer to smooth it out or try to lay something on the 2 sides and bottom so the bottom lace will be flat or put a piece of material on top of the veil and iron it. I hope this helps
