Mermaid wedding dresses are a highly popular choice with brides. Mermaid wedding dresses are so called because they are tight around the pelvis and sweep out at the base, like a mermaid’s silhouette. They are a very flattering and sleek shape, which is why they are chosen by so many brides. Mermaid wedding dresses are particularly well suited to petite women, who might seem overwhelmed by a large ball gown skirt. Cheap wedding dresses can be found in a range of mermaid styles.
Mermaid wedding dresses are often highly tailored, using folding fabrics and detailing to create the mermaid wedding dress silhouette. This is a very soft and romantic look.
Mermaid wedding dresses often feature a medium to long train. You may wish to have your flower girl or a bridesmaid carry the train of your mermaid wedding dress. The train of some mermaid wedding dresses can be pinned to the back of the dress for the reception and dancing. Many mermaid wedding dresses have a special hook at the back which the train can be pinned to.
Many brides chose to pair their mermaid wedding dress with a long veil. The sleek silhouette of mermaid style wedding dresses allow for wearing a long wedding veil in a way that wider wedding gown shapes don’t.
Mermaid wedding dresses can be a lot easier to walk in than ball gown wedding dresses. Many brides chose mermaid style wedding dresses for this reason.
