Veil Headpiece - Helena

HOW TO MEASURE

Take a tape measure around the widest part of your head; from the forehead around the widest part of your head and back to meet the forehead.  Don't pull too tight on the tape or your hat will be too tight.  It is useful to insert your pinky under the tape to allow for a little room when measuring.  

STYLE GUIDE

Royal Enclosure

Hats should be worn; however, a headpiece which has a solid base of 4 inches (10cm) or more in diameter covering a sufficient area of the head is acceptable as an alternative to a hat.  

Fascinators are not permitted

All other Enclosures (Windsor optional)

A hat, headpiece or fascinator should be worn at all times.

Wearing to a wedding?

Traditionally women wear their hats and fascinators on the right-hand side, however, this is not strictly necessary in a modern setting.

Hats and fascinators are generally worn to the side of the head and slightly forward.
