How to Choose a Mermaid Costume
If your daughter wants this year to become a charming mermaid by wearing an Ariel the mermaid costume for the upcoming Halloween party, then you can already take the costume shops by assault and choose the best outfit.
If your daughter is small, you should look for an outfit that is very aerial, and is not at all tight. This will guarantee freedom of movement for her and will make a very comfortable wear. Among the plethora of available choices, you should look for an outfit that is made of a non-irritating material such as cotton, satin, or velvet. It is very important to consider comfort and health above all, as the skin of smaller children can become very irritated by materials such as nylon. Alternatively, if you can find only nylon and polyester made outfits, make sure that you can dress her up underneath with a comfortable layer of clothes made of cotton.
An Ariel the mermaid costume for more grown up girls, should be a little more sophisticated. A nice full-length gown which has ruffled organza details and a layered bottom of an iridescent material makes up for a perfect mermaid style dress. You should be attentive about the accessories, and make sure that the costume also comes with a headband or a tiara. A purse can be acquired separately, or can be hand made by you. All it takes is for you to redesign an old purse and turn into a glamorous little treat bag.
Young women can also choose an Ariel the mermaid costume for the Halloween to wear. These are usually made up of two piece costumes, featuring a bra like short stretch top and a fishtail style skirt. If you also attach a long seaweed boa as an accessory, you will truly look like a sea princess that has just arrived from her underwater colorful kingdom.
The color is a very important aspect of the Ariel the mermaid costumes in general. Some prefer darker, strong colors. However, a mermaid style outfit should always feature softer metallic colors such as teal, iridescent white, pale pink, jade, or soft lavender. You can go with any combinations within this palette.
Toddler, grown up girls and young ladies alike can become a gorgeous Ariel the sea princess, if they give enough attention to the details such as the overall color and the accessories such as the little purse and the headband.
