Silk Veils

I've decided to graduate to a silk veil.

I've only worked with chiffon & polyester blends in the past. too much static with my hair.

Do I want a rectangle or a half circle?

How long should it be? - I find the 3yd chiffon -too long for my 5'5" height - but the 2 yd seems kinda short for some moves. I don't want to alter it but I will if I must.

Suggestions for vendors also welcome. Thanks.

crossposted.

veil choices?

Dahlal - no pattern I didn't like their patterns, solid colour, 3 yrd. SILK $35 plus $7 for shipping.

but - I've never ordered anything through ebay. and I'm not to sure I'm crazy about the patterns although... the blue water ripple might be okay. or the red...
