Four folds
What each one says
Wide and open
Pleats spread like a fan behind the head. Good for photographs from the front.
Round and low
A spiral that sits close, so it never blocks the view of the guest behind you.
For the front row
Stiff aso oke folded up in layers. Mothers of the couple, and the bold.
Light and modern
Net or tissue swept to one side, with one long tail.
