Why Lavender Suits the Mother of the Bride
Lavender is soft, elegant and flattering on mature skin. It complements most wedding palettes, never competes with the bride, and photographs beautifully in both daylight and evening light. The subtle sparkle adds a sense of occasion without being flashy.
What to consider
Choose a headpiece you can wear comfortably for 10 hours or more. The Seraphina sits on a headband, so there are no combs digging in, and it will not get in the way during hugs, speeches and dancing.

How to Style the Seraphina
Tonal lilac
Pair it with a lavender or lilac dress and jacket for a coordinated, timeless look.
Silver and grey
A dove grey or silver dress with lavender accents feels sophisticated and modern.
Navy
Navy and lavender is a classic, elegant pairing for formal weddings.
Evening events and galas
The sparkle makes it suitable for evening functions and charity balls.
What to Wear With a Lavender Headpiece
- Dresses: lavender, lilac, grey, silver, navy or plum
- Shoes: silver, nude or grey
- Bags: silver or lavender
- Jewellery: pearls or silver
- Hair: a soft chignon or smooth blow dry
