Mermaid wedding dresses
Mermaid wedding dresses are the ideal choice for brides who want to celebrate their figure. The fitted silhouette flowing into a dramatic flared hem creates an unforgettable entrance and a truly glamorous look.
Hand-made at DAMA Couture, each gown combines expert corsetry with luxurious fabrics.
What is a mermaid wedding dress?
Mermaid wedding dresses follow the bodice, waist and hips before opening out towards the hem. The point where the skirt flares changes the proportions of the whole dress. Look for the line you enjoy, then try it in movement.
Mermaid, fishtail or fit-and-flare?
Mermaid and fishtail often describe a similar silhouette. Fit-and-flare usually opens out higher on the leg, although these names are not used identically everywhere. Compare the dresses themselves: where the skirt widens and how much room you have to walk. An A-line gives you another shape to try.
Satin or lace?
A smooth surface makes the cut and contours visible; lace adds a pattern that can follow or interrupt those lines. Explore satin and lace wedding dresses and look at your favourites from the side and back as well as the front.
How should a fitted wedding dress feel?
Close-fitting does not tell you how a particular gown will feel on you. Walk, sit and move your arms at the fitting. Notice the fit through the bodice and hips and where the skirt begins to open. If the dress has a train, ask how to manage it during the celebration.
