In the last couple of years, headpieces have experienced a surge in popularity. And let’s face it – this attention is well-deserved. With all eyes (and cameras) on you, this carefully-crafted piece brings a lot of attention for the right reasons. Moreover, the rise of independent designers and eco-fashion has led to a trend for anything handmade….and that also refers to handmade headpieces.
Here are 4 reasons why you should opt for a handmade headpiece to spice up your outfit on your wedding day.
1. A bespoke accessory
The headpiece is the bride’s most important accessory. Originality is key if you aspire to ‘wow’ your guests as you’re walking down the aisle. If you’re a creative soul, you can easily discuss with your jeweller of choice what the headpiece of your dreams looks like, creating something timeless along the way.

2. Ethically Sourced Stones
If you’re an ethically conscious consumer, handmade headpieces are really the way to go. Crowns and other types of headpieces are made with precious stones such as crystals, rhinestones and pearls. Do your research, and make sure that your jeweller uses sustainable metal, fair traded gold and fair-minded gemstones when crafting your headpiece.

3. Supporting local designers
Malta is blessed with young designers who are keen to make a mark on the local and international fashion industry. There’s no better way to express Maltese pride and to support the local fashion scene than to showcase the work of Maltese designers on your wedding day.
4. Say yes to a floral crown
If you’re not a bling-bling kind of gal, you should definitely consider a floral crown. Floral crowns are super on trend and perfectly complement a boho-chic wedding dress. Furthermore, this type of crown adds a touch of romance and an ethereal, hippie and laid-back vibe.
