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 04/2014 orders for this dress are no longer being taken.

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 .

  8. I am interested in this dress. Would you be willing to sell your daughter's (I'm assuming she outgrew it now), or connect me with the dressmaker? Thank you, Kelly kwhistler@live.com
