The Poppy Bow
The Poppy Bow is a wedding hair bow with veil, and it does the job of both at once — a soft tulle bow that clips into your hair, with two long embroidered tails that fall down your back the way a short veil does.
Every flower on it is embroidered, not printed. Poppies, daisies and small five-petal blooms are stitched in thread across sheer tulle, with trailing green stems and leaves winding between them. Hold it to the light and you can see the stitching on the back of each flower, which is what gives the colors their slight raised texture.
It fixes with a metal comb hidden in the knot of the bow. Push it into a half-up twist, a low bun, or straight into loose hair — the tulle is light enough that it holds without pulling.
Why You’ll Love It
- Hand-embroidered wildflowers in thread on sheer tulle — not a printed pattern
- Long embroidered tails that fall like a short veil
- Metal comb hidden inside the bow knot
- One soft layer — nothing stiff, nothing scratchy
- Choose warm Red Flowers or sunny Orange Flowers
- Works with loose hair, a half-up twist or a low bun
Fabric and Finish
Made from tulle and lace in a single layer, finished with a metal comb. The flowers are embroidered directly into the tulle, so the color sits in the thread itself and the sheer ground stays sheer between the blooms.
Choose Your Flowers
Red Flowers is the warmer of the two — deep reds and pinks with green stems, which reads romantic against ivory and works beautifully in autumn light. Orange Flowers is brighter and sunnier, with oranges, yellows and small white daisies, and it is the one to pick for a summer garden or a daytime ceremony outdoors.
For the Bride, the Bridesmaids and the Bachelorette Party
This is not only a wedding-day piece. It is an easy, photogenic thing to wear to a bachelorette party, a bridal shower, a rehearsal dinner or a hen weekend — the bow reads celebratory on its own, without the formality of a full veil. Buy one for the bride and plainer hair pieces for the group, or give one to each bridesmaid as a gift they will genuinely wear again. Many brides keep this on for the reception after the real veil comes off, which is exactly when the photographs get relaxed.
Where to Wear It
Garden ceremonies, courthouse and city hall weddings, elopements, receptions, bridal showers and bachelorette weekends. It suits a bride who wants color somewhere in the outfit without putting it on the dress, and it is one of the few bridal pieces that still looks right with a denim jacket at the end of the night.
