If you are looking for a dress that is figure-flattering and feminine, then a mermaid style is ideal for you. Mermaid dresses, also called fishtail dresses, hug the body down to the hips and flare out at the bottom, creating an hourglass figure or a “mermaid silhouette.” Considering how chic they look, they have been worn by top celebrities, including Malaika Arora, Janhvi Kapoor, Shalini Passi, and Nora Fatehi, among others.

Donning a full-sleeve red backless mermaid gown by Manish Malhotra, Malaika looks splendid in the timeless style. The shimmery outfit accentuates her natural curves beautifully, giving her a classic appeal. Her glossy makeup and soft curls complete the look to a T.

Shalini Passi:

The popular socialite’s classic peach mermaid dress features a figure-hugging sequin silhouette with a flared net bottom and a tiny side bow. Her shoulder straps are also bow-shaped. The look sparkles even more with her solid diamonds, while her high ponytail with soft curls at the ends gives her a princess-like vibe. Her make-up, too, is perfectly defined, enhancing her regal aura.
