Little Mermaid Inspired Costume

Perfect for Little mermaid fans!

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/little-mermaid-inspired-costume-2 • Posted by Nicole L.

I wish I had time to make this all over again. I would have made the "tail" slightly longer and the tulle a little bit fuller and longer. And maybe somehow made the top and bottom one congruent piece. The tail was made out of a knit material so it had a little stretch in it which allowed her to run around a little bit. I also would have made the straps on the top a little shorter so it didn't come down so low. But overall I was very happy with it. Especially after comparing it to other "store bought" little mermaid costumes. Again, I'm really terrible at taking pictures as I go so I don't have a tutorial for this one either, but if I get enough interest I may consider making another one. And possibly an adult sized one. Thanks for checking out my page!
