The mermaid dress is close fitting through the bodice, down through the hips and to about mid or lower calf where the skirt flares out.
The mermaid silhouette is designed for women who have flattering curves that they want to accentuate. It is extremely fitted to the knee, at which point it flares out dramatically. Because of its emphasis on leg and torso length, it is not recommended for women who are short. Brides who choose this design will likely need to change before the reception, because it is difficult to sit in. It is also not recommended for brides who will be kneeling during the ceremony for any reason. This dress is a great dress for women who would like to display their curves.
