The renewed wave of heated discussions about the movie adaptation of “The Little Mermaid” has thrown the main summer trend ashore. Mermaidcore (or “mermaid” aesthetics) has existed in the fashion world before - remember the shells and starfish at the Versace SS 2021 show. But this time it received a new development and went much further than the world’s catwalks, firmly establishing itself not only on the pages of glossy magazines, but also on social networks.
Take it into service!
What to choose?
We look towards jewelry that is somehow related to marine themes and the underwater world. We do not pass by pearls, shells and large shells in the most unusual design options. We pay attention to products in the shape of fish, crabs and dolphins. Let's also add here - symbols and fairy-tale motifs associated with waves, ships and sea rocks.
If you don’t want to flirt with design, choose jewelry with large crystals or mother-of-pearl.
From what to wear?
To literally quote the image of a mermaid, all you need is a flowing maxi skirt with a tight-fitting silhouette and a laconic long sleeve that fits like a second skin (for maximum effect, give preference to nude shades or translucent materials). Among the more daring options, crop tops and bras (including those in the shape of shells) are more relevant than ever.
If you want to add freshness to everyday outfits, then you can safely experiment with natural fabrics (relaxed shirts, dresses and suits made of cotton or linen) in natural shades.
Separately, we note the popular combination of a marine theme and iridescent silk.
How to combine?
We suggest leaving large or even massive items as the only accent decoration of the image. The same goes for unusual, instantly eye-catching designs or extremely bright colors.
In other cases, as usual, we follow our preferences. Neat bracelets made of pearls or shells can be combined with chains or rigid bracelets. Necklaces - with your favorite pendants or medallions.
A wide variety of earrings and earrings are very simple and unpretentious to use.
