Exactly as I expected and pictured- one layer, raw edge and long. You don't notice the raw edge at a glance as it appears to just blend with the rest of the folds in the veil which is exactly the look I wanted. The comb is clear plastic which is not an issue for me but thought I'd mention it as it does not say this in the description. I could not believe the price when I saw it after almost purchasing my veil in a bridal store! I did not think a veil this length was in my budget until I checked Amazon, thanks Amazon (and this seller of course)! At this price I could have gotten a more detailed veil but I liked the understated elegance of this one. Not much else to say. The veil was exactly as described and I'm very happy with the softness and flow of the veil. It did come very wrinkled in the packaging but I'll hang it for now and steam whatever wrinkles are still there closer to my big day.
