Mermaid Party Dresses


I have been getting quite a lot of emails lately about the mermaid dresses that the girls wore to Lilli's birthday party last year.


 So I thought I would do a quick post sharing some more photo's of the dresses and the details of where I picked them up.


The dresses are handmade from a mix of new and vintage fabrics and materials. Both of the girls dresses had a sheer overlay of material, a lining and hand stitched detail on the front bodice.Of course there was a pretty swishy swirly tail area which had shell and pearl details. I just gave instructions on the colors I was looking for and the dressmaker sourced the material and made the dresses up to order. They are not off the rack so they take a while to make and there may be a waiting time.


UPDATE 24/07/2012 - The dress maker had been inundated with requests and is presently unable to take orders for the next few months.

Order details are Karen McCubbin -  email  darkar1(at)optusnet(dot)com(dot)au ....you know the drill remove the brackets and replace with the @ and .

and here is the party the dresses were made for from last year in case you missed it, CLICK HERE for the link.

    1. Hi I know that she was a bit inundated after this post. As she hand sews everything and sources vintage materials to match the colour requested it takes her quite a while to make each dress, I think she may be unable to take any more orders for a few months :( She also has some beautiful head wear which she is listing on her etsy store.

    2. Thanks for the reply but I think she as a business person needs to answer her emails one way or another I think it's what a good business person does .
