Mermaid Dresses

The appeal of mermaid dresses is hard to deny. There has never really been a time when this style wasn’t trendy. Maybe it’s because of the fairytales we all read and watched as kids. Maybe it’s the beauty of a mermaid silhouette. Maybe it’s the knowledge that nothing can create an hourglass shape quite like this dress style. Maybe it’s all three. One thing is for sure – this trend is here to stay. Here are the best occasions to wear mermaid gowns and the best designers. 

Don a Mermaid Gown for the Ultimate Red Carpet Look

We’ve seen mermaid dresses at official functions and highly formal events countless times. You can wear a mermaid gown at any red carpet event, as a guest of a formal wedding, a gala, a reception, or your prom. A shimmery mermaid gown will always secure that wow factor you’re yearning for.

The clean lines of this style create an hourglass shape, with the flattering waist transforming into a lush, exquisite skirt cascading down to the floor.

The gown flares over your legs and, depending on the style, can end with a majestic sweep train. This is a look that will leave no one indifferent. Mermaid dresses are available in various colors and materials from NewYorkDress. If you want to be less restricted in your movement, pick a gown with a slit.

Top Designer Mermaid Dresses

The preeminent designer of mermaid dresses is Portia and Scarlett. A highlight of their collection is the mesh mermaid dress with high front and long bat sleeve. The astounding number features a fitted mesh bodice with long sleeves reaching down to the floor. The gown’s mermaid silhouette flares out from the knees down to a remarkable sweep train.

If that seems too extravagant for you, you’d be happy to know they have less formal styles as well. One of these is the fluted halter-style mermaid gown - romantic and exquisite, it complements a candlelit dinner perfectly. With a feathery fit, soft tucks frame the midriff and bust, while the slender halter strap of the sweetheart-neckline bodice gently slips behind the neck. At the sides of the waist, a sensuous touch is provided by sheer insets. The curvy mermaid skirt flutters down to the floor. 

Another designer who shows appreciation of the mermaid silhouette is Andrea & Leo, whose gowns normally combine form-hugging bodices with flowing skirts. A V-neck, bareback design combined with a mermaid train is not only remarkable to look at in and of itself, but also accentuates curves and elongates the frame. Andrea & Leo’s gowns come in a wide variety of colors, from soft pastels to opulent emerald and sapphire. If you’re a diva at heart, you will gravitate to their timeless and bold mermaid dresses naturally.
