2015 has undoubtedly brought sexy back to the bridal party with the insurgence of the ‘naked dress’ (thanks to J Lo, Kim K and Beyoncé), plunging necklines and creeping hemlines (Whitney Port), but the one trend that has been embraced across all wedding gown styles and all local and international couturiers is the mermaid-cut.
We’re going to call it; we think the slinky and sensual, but still classic mermaid-cut gown is possibly the biggest trend of the year. A fellow lover of a mermaid-cut gown, Virginia from Personalised Weddings Couture explains,
“The reason the mermaid-cut been so popular in 2015 is it is a very elegant fitting & sophisticated look, as long as the bride has the body to pull this look off.
And, what sort of body do we need to pull this off?
“Mermaid-cuts definitely don’t suit below average height brides, but more medium to tall slender or voluptuous figures. In most circumstances we cut or add to the bottom panels to balance the top depending on the height & shape of the bride to create an amazing look which Personalised Weddings Couture is renowned for.
So, Fairies, the mermaid-cut is also an excuse to purchase those super high Louboutins!
