The Mermaid Silhouette

by onewhitedress on 02/06/09 at 11:36 am

A Mermaid or otherwise known as a Fishtail or Trumpet gown is slim, sexy, and body hugging down to the knees. It’s real design trend however, happens from the knees down, where the gown flairs out to create a imaginative Mermaid tail in appearance. Gowns of this style are commonly structured and boned so to conform to the design traits making them a tad restrictive, just a heads up… Considering practicing your walking in the dress before the big day!  A Mermaid gown emphasizes the figure and accentuates the curves so if your the common hourglass in shape or aren’t afraid to show off your womanly shape short or tall, then this style could be just for you. This style of gown is not for the faint hearted… It’s daring and dramatic! ♥
