Mermaid Plus Size & Slit Wedding Guest Dresses

How to Choose Mermaid Plus Size & Slit Wedding Guest Dresses

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.

Plus sizes are graded on their own block, so the bodice, strap placement and hem all land where they should instead of being a larger copy of a small pattern. Support where it is needed, with seams re-drafted for the size, not stretched. Every shade and cloth in the range is cut across the full size run.

A slit gives a floor-length skirt somewhere to go when the wearer moves — the easiest way to make a long, narrow dress feel modern rather than formal-heavy. Lets a long hem walk easily and adds movement to a straight skirt. Pair with a heel that shows on the step and keep the hem to the floor.

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.
