I never actually realised the significance of a veil until I decided to write about it.
Basically, the meaning of wearing a veil is recorded as “In the eighteenth century the veil evolved into a symbol of modesty and chastity where it remains to this day.”
I don’t think I will go into much more detail on the history of the veil – you can surprise yourself when you Google it.
