Long Mermaid Open Back Bridesmaid Dresses

How to Choose Long Mermaid Open Back Bridesmaid Dresses

Floor-length is the default for a ceremony: it is the most formal hem in the range and the one that holds a line down a long aisle, whatever silhouette sits above it. Reads formal on every height and lengthens a mixed party in photographs.

Mermaid is the black-tie silhouette: it holds the waist and hip and releases into a flare that moves on the walk out, so it belongs to evening ceremonies rather than lawns. The most formal cut, built for a long aisle and a still photograph. Pair with a heel — the flare is drafted for a lifted hem.

An open back drops the seam well below the shoulder blade, so the dress reads plain from the front and becomes the detail as the party walks away. Needs a supportive bodice or corsetry built into the front. Skip the necklace and let an earring carry the jewellery instead.

Every shade is dyed to one standard across 0 shades, so a party mixing hems, necklines and cloths still reads as a single palette in photographs. Order up to 10 swatches free before you commit.
