Take a style cue from Ines di Santo and pair a slim lace sheath with a blooming floral headpiece for a whimsically chic look. Keep the hairstyle simple with romantic, soft waves.

At Marchesa, a mod '60s-inspired lace dress was accessorized with a sheer, fingertip-length veil featuring lace appliqués at the crown. We love the unusual pairing of a longer veil with a shorter dress — très chic!

Grand proportions! We're obsessed with this textured sheath-cathedral veil combo at Naeem Khan. Pairing the veil with a slim dress (as opposed to a ball gown) gave it a modern edge, as did the chic side-parted chignon.

We fell head-over-heels for this "halo veil" at Peter Langner. This cross between a veil and a headband has a preppy, elegant feel.

At Oscar de la Renta, ultra-thin crystal headbands were worn with center-parted chignons. We love the way that the headbands were placed closer to the hairline for a modern princess feel.

A floral crown was the statement accessory of the season. We love this earthy crown at Temperley London, which was paired with a matching bouquet. The model's hair was pulled up in loose, textured braids, imbuing the look with ethereal drama.

We spotted a bohemian-style metal halo at the Theia show that's perfect for the Coachella girl. A beachy, wavy hairstyle pulls together this confident California cool look.
