Veil Size Guide

Sometimes this is called a headband size. This size feels lightweight and effortless, making it perfect for daily Mass or personal prayer in Adoration.
Medium / Mantilla Length
Our most popular size goes just where your hair ends. This length feels graceful and traditional, ideal for Sunday Mass.

How to Measure
1
Place the measuring tape at the point on your head where you plan to wear the veil (usually the crown or top of the head).
2
Let the tape fall naturally down your back or shoulders to visualize where different lengths will reach.
3
Consider your height and face shape; shorter veils often frame the face, while longer ones provide a more draped, reverent silhouette.
4
Think about your comfort and how the veil will feel during movement, such as genuflecting or kneeling in prayer.
