If you need to make yourself not the same as others and put on an exceptionally challenging marriage dress for the day, then mermaid dresses are the best decision for you. In any case, if you need a refined look that would give pride on your face on the unique day, then you can select this dress. Also known as a fishtail, a mermaid wedding dress is closely fitted in the bodice all the way down to the knee, where it dramatically flares out – you’ll find that the skirt on gowns described as ‘trumpet’ or ‘fit-and-flare’ starts higher up, typically from either the mid-hip or thigh.
