Two Veils, Two Different Finishes
The Avo and Khari veils both sit in the cathedral length category, but they take very different routes to the same aisle. The Avo is a fully hand-beaded crystal veil with tiny pearls, crystals and beads, shaped as a modern single tier with no gather at the comb. The Khari is an ivory Chantilly lace veil where you choose whether the lace begins at the comb or at the fingertips.
That difference in construction is the real decision point. One veil leads with sparkle and a clean, ungathered drape; the other leads with lace and a placement choice that changes where the detail sits in your photos and procession.
What the Catalog Confirms About Each Veil
- Khari Veil: Khari Veil by MK Moda: cathedral length, ivory, finished with Chantilly lace; lace can start at the comb or at the fingertips. The lace placement option lets you move the embellishment from the crown of your head to the ends of the veil, which changes the veil's visual weight.
Khari Veil - Avo - Last One: Avo crystal veil: completely hand-beaded with tiny pearls, crystals and beads; modern single tier with no gather at the comb. The no-gather construction gives a simple, light look at the comb, while the hand-beading supplies the detail throughout the veil.

Avo vs Khari at a Glance
Use this side-by-side to see where the two veils diverge on the details the catalog actually states.
- Length: Both are described as cathedral length. The Khari record specifies cathedral 110"; the Avo record lists a cathedral size option.
- Embellishment: Avo is completely hand-beaded with tiny pearls, crystals and beads. Khari is finished with Chantilly lace.
- Comb and gather: Avo has a modern single tier shape with no gather at the comb. The Khari record does not describe the comb or gather.
- Placement choice: Khari offers lace starting at the comb or lace starting at the fingertips. Avo's listed option is size (cathedral).
- Color: Khari is ivory with Chantilly lace. The Avo record does not state a color.
When the Avo Crystal Veil Makes Sense
Choose the Avo if you want the veil itself to be the sparkle in your look. Because it is completely hand-beaded with tiny pearls, crystals and beads, it will read as detailed even in close photographs, and the single-tier, no-gather shape keeps the comb area simple and light rather than voluminous.
That no-gather construction is also a practical clue: if you dislike a pouf or bunching where the veil meets your hairstyle, the Avo is built to avoid it. The tradeoff is that the catalog does not state a color for the Avo, so confirm the shade before you commit if matching ivory or white matters to you.
When the Khari Lace Veil Makes Sense
Choose the Khari if lace is part of your dress story or you want control over where the detail lands. The two lace placements are genuinely different looks: lace starting at the comb frames your face and shoulders from the moment you put the veil on, while lace starting at the fingertips keeps the upper veil plain and concentrates the lace at the trailing end.
The Khari is ivory with Chantilly lace, so it suits a dress that already speaks the same soft, romantic language. If your gown is heavily beaded or embroidered, the lace-only finish may balance it better than a second layer of crystal and pearl detail.
How to Decide Before You Buy
- Look at your dress's detail level: If your gown is plain or minimally detailed, the Avo's hand-beaded pearls and crystals add interest. If your gown is already ornate, the Khari's Chantilly lace offers texture without competing sparkle.
- Decide where you want attention: The Avo puts detail throughout the veil. The Khari lets you choose lace at the comb (near your face) or at the fingertips (at the end of the train).
- Consider your hairstyle and comb comfort: The Avo's no-gather comb is designed for a simple, light look. The Khari record does not describe its comb, so ask about the comb construction if that matters to you.
- Confirm color and availability: Khari is listed as ivory; Avo's color is not stated in the supplied record. Avo is also marked 'Last One,' so check stock before planning around it.
What the Supplied Information Does Not Cover
The catalog records do not include care instructions, comb material, weight, or styling recommendations for either veil. They also do not state whether the Avo is available in other colors or whether the Khari lace pattern can be customized beyond the two placement options. Treat those as questions to confirm with the store rather than assumptions.
What the records do give you is a clear split: Avo for hand-beaded sparkle with a clean, ungathered comb, and Khari for Chantilly lace with a placement choice. Match that split to your dress and the part of the veil you want photographed most, and the decision becomes much simpler.
