This bridal season, I made 13 veils and shipped to 8 countries, here are a few of my favourites:

A custom Juliet cap veil for Marina from my Etsy shop, a fully custom embroidered veil for Rebecca in the UK, a hand beaded mini veil for Tina in LA, Jazzey’s pink fingertip veil in Australia, a 5-metre lace-trimmed veil for Alexandra in Madrid, a full lace veil for Molly in Monaco, and a last minute shoulder length veil for Ratiba.

Every veil is designed and made entirely by hand, here in my Nice studio, from ready-to-order Etsy pieces to fully custom commissions built around a bride’s dress and vision.

The universe knew I needed to be home today 🤍

I had a delivery coming and fully expected to miss it ,
but I had to dash home to rescue some fabric from the washing machine, and who do I bump into at the door? The postman!

And then I opened the parcel and actually gasped.

You know that feeling when you order fabric online and you’re never quite sure if it will live up to the pictures? This was the opposite. It was even more beautiful than I expected.

Huge thank you to Magali at in Paris, my absolute favourite fabric shop in the city. I love that even from Nice I can count on her completely. If you’re ever looking for exceptional lace and impeccable service, she’s your lady!🤍

She found it at the last minute. She’ll keep it forever.

The Flora Beaded Mini Veil holds a special place for me — it was my very first beaded mini veil. A new direction, a quiet experiment in craft.

And somehow, it found exactly the right bride. From Nice all the way to LA.

Tina reached out just a few weeks before her wedding. We made it work — and she made it beautiful.

“Dreamy, timeless, and perfectly me.”

“A veil carries such an emotional role on a wedding day. I genuinely could not have been happier to wear this one.”

There is something quietly emotional about this one. A first for me. A once-in-a-lifetime for her. And a piece she says she will keep forever.

This is why I do what I do.

The Flora is available in the shop. Link in bio.

My First Etsy Bride 🤍

I found this vintage lace at an antique market in Florence last year…
and yesterday it became a custom Juliet cap veil for my very first Etsy bride in the US 🤍✨

There’s something so special about seeing a material you’ve held onto find its perfect purpose. Carefully hand-dyed, shaped, and finished with mitred corners—every detail considered.

Two unforgettable weeks in Paris 🪡✨

Today I finished my final class at École Lesage, and as I’m sitting on the train home, I can’t help but wish I could relive every moment again.

For years I dreamed of coming here to properly learn the techniques of haute couture embroidery, and these past weeks exceeded everything I imagined. I loved every minute — from long days at the embroidery frame to evenings practicing my stitches and finishing my homework.

And when I wasn’t in class, Paris treated me incredibly well. Beautiful sunshine, inspiring fashion exhibitions, and hours spent wandering through my favourite fabric shops searching for lace, beads and sequins. Every moment felt creatively energising.

I’m leaving Paris feeling inspired, grateful, and even more excited to bring these techniques into my bridal work.

The only comforting thought right now?
I know I’ll be back soon for my second course.

À bientôt, Paris. 🤍

There’s nothing to lose — only skills to gain 🪡

So many of you have told me how this is your dream and that you are living it through me.

I say go out there, find someone to teach you, invest in the school, watch those youtube videos, buy the books and try! There is nothing to loose, after all, its only embroidery!
